Second comparison is the SACC light mount and trim combination. The light mounting button head bolts are stainless steel and always exposed. The edge details are as recieved shown untouched. Painting of any type requires a total disassembly of the lights including the adjuster screw removal. Adjusters are back nut-ed with nylon lock nuts allowing the socket head adjuster to spin and hold the light in place. Paint damage could appear from the adjuster screws since they are in direct contact with the mount/trim plate as shown. Power coat should be OK---body color repaint could be a problem.
