Should I buy venetians that are white or get black ones that have been painted white, the only reason im asking is because white ones are so hard to find

There are usually genuine/new white ones on ebay. Finding a set that doesn't cost as much as a new VL is a much harder task sadly...

Yeah that's the thing they cost an arm and a leg for a full set so I want to slowly find some bit by bit but I can only find some that have been resprayed white I don't know if I should get them or not

Are the resprayed ones a lot cheaper? If they are it's probs worth it... I'd go for them. F**k paying over $450 for some bloody venetians when you could get a full zorst or a bunch of other **** done for that haha - they don't even do much that you can't solve with tint they just look damn cool really hehe.

mate just buy whatever colour you can. I originally swapped a astarter motor for some blue ones painted em white, black, ivory and then black again and recently i picked up a factory black set and sold the ones with 10 coats of paint for $120. it's not even an issue a $5 can of paint from bunnos will do the trick and you will find most people you se will have painted theirs its not that dodgy

You can paint your venetians white if you want. Paint each fin a different colour... Originally, VL and VK venetians were black from factory. Only VC-VH had the option of white or black. Of course they have no rear 1/4 window. Thats why you will only find a rear window venetians originally in white, and theyre ivory/off white in colour.
