Default Rear trim/air extractors

The trim/extractors on either side of the hatch on the Jimmy I'm purchasing need to be painted, as is obvious in the photo I've included (I'll probably do the roof rack, too). Were these a satin finish from the factory or were they gloss? It looks like satin to me, but I wanted to be sure before buying the paint. Thanks.

They were black on most of them, but there's a couple that came body color.

I took mine off and color matched them...

Thanks. Do they just pull off or are there fasteners on the inside that have to be removed?

Do you have the split hatch with drop gate, or 1 piece lift hatch?

I have the one piece, and there's a couple of screws on the inside you unscrew, then it's a slide upwards and lift. I can try and take a look after work to verify. I know it wasnt hard and was easy to do once I looked at it.

This one has the drop gate. I would think the trim would be the same though. Thanks.

Might not be the same, but shouldn't be too hard. Let us know what you find.
