I agree with you that they look like cheap plastic in chrome. That`s why they will be painted black as my car.

Yes you can, have talked to a guy that have retrofitted these. Only modification you have to do is to remove the tap on the end of it. Since they already have glue under the protection film, you have no need for this tap. The FL indicator match the shape of the Pre face fender. Connectors are them same, and no warning lights occur on dashboard

I will do a write up when they arrive from the paint shop
