Intersting. What colour is your car? Have you any pics you can post to see the finished article?

Also heard that if you get the orange paint off, the wedges are black anyway.

Cheers.

Remove them from the scoob, and soak them in Cellulose Thinners for about 2 mins, and the orange paint will start to peel off, rubbing them with a paint brush or a small blunt knife and your left with black wedges. I just polished mine with Auto-Glem plastic bumper restorer, and refitted them, or colour code them to your car.
A pic of mine below with crystal's and black wedges.
