Default 04 Tahoe question

just purchased a 2004 Tahoe and would like to know what the 2 black vent looking things are on the back/top of the Tahoe. Mine are starting to fade and I might replace them if possible. If anyone knows what these are called and where to get them please me know. Thanks

You can remove them and paint them or have them painted.

I thought about that, what kind of paint should I use or should I take them some where and get them professionaly done so they don't look worse than they do now? Thanks

Any plastic paint. A body shop could do it also. It all depends how much you want to spend. I have seen a few painted to match the body.

They're called appliques.
