Wrote earlier about dentin frame and decided to go with pucs but i don't like the black on silver frame. If I bought them, I would get a can of xb frame silver and paint them. Can they be painted? Will the paint look good? Also, do the cheapen up the look of the bike w them on? U guys have been a big help! Thanx!

Yes, any good quality paint...I used a spray engine enamel and they matched my frame nicely....until one fell off..I think they look good when they match...less obvious....IMHO

Just make sure to use a base coat of plastic adhesion promoter, then the paint. If you just paint the pucks it might flake off.
