I can't tell through all of the wax (ahhhhh my eyes, the reflection has temporarily blinded me!) but is your side and front moulding painted?

What comes on when you guys turn on your parking lights? Obviously the not as bright as the brakes red light in the back, but what about the front?

For me, I get the clear portion of the front lens. Is it orange running lights for you guys?

What was the process of painting the moulding the same as the car? I'm wanting to get my car repainted and my moulding has some rubbed on paint that I can't get off and since my car is black, the moulding would look good the same color.
Please give me details!

Looks great! Did they pull the moulding off of the car to paint it, then reattach with 3M tape, or did they spray while the molding was on the car? ...just curious. Mine will be needing a paint job and I didn't have them paint the moulding last time.
