Same problem here. I have insta-trim and just ordered the larger 16" lower tab section. I was just thinking of painting mine as well. They do sell a special paint that sticks better to plastic than your normal off the self stuff. I bought some a few years back from a local paint shop. Don't recall the name but I'll make a call tomorrow

I picked up a can at home depot /gloss black
regular spray paint,its been about 2 years and they still look great.
also they hold up great to acid washing.
