A guy on ebay. He said they were OEM. Do they look right. They seem to be plastic? Not metal Should I just forget it?

Thanks Ron, I feel better. They do look kinda cheap for OEM. I guess this is how they save weight.

Yeah,

It is kinda funny all the Aluminum look stuff is just painted plastic that they charge a fortune for. It looks good don't get me wrong, but my Stereo guy painted my center console and stereo surround for a whole lot less then Porsche charges.
