washer paint?

Does anyone paint their windshield washers to match car or hood color?.....well I am thinking about to paint my washers to silver using OEM Touch Up paint, cuz I my car is silver so I think it will look good if all the silver, (like S2000 washers are paint).

so is OEM touch up paint reliable, does it good for long or it will peel out soon?

suggestion, please

thank you.......

CivicS, that's so funny...I just helped a friend replace his washer heads on his silver coupe...this is hassle-free: Just go to your dealer and buy new washer heads for a silver accord. These will fit perfectly and will unify the look of the car, especially on the EX w/ the body-colored mirrors and handles. I'm doing mine next weekend

Color matched washer nozzels is not rice, not crap, it's clean. Now LED washer nozzels is rice, and in most cases not legal.

Buddy, you got ripped off. Should have just bought touch-up paint. $5 and 45 minutes of your time, and your nozzles would match, and you'd have extra touch-up paint for random scratches, and you'd have an extra $17 in your wallet, and you wouldn't have an extra set of nozzles around for no reason.

Hey, just rough them up a little with some fine abrasive paper and then clean them with alcohol. Apply a couple or three thin coats of touch up pant and you're good to go. Mine been painted now for 5 months and show no signs of chipping or peeling.

Oh, and be sure to reattach the washer fluid tubing when you are done.............if you plan to use the washers. [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
