Alright this is my first post so I hope all goes well. Anyways I have a 1995 Eclipse and there i a metal strip above the doors on both sides of the car. There is black paint that is flaking off and I dont know what to do. I am not sure if I need to replace these 2 parts (one on each side) or if I should just paint over it. If you guys could help me out it would be greatly appreciated.
