Yesterday I painted my HSE Si6 calipers a classy gold, I think it came out great. But raising the back on jack stands was a pain. The front has some obvious points to jack up and then place jack stands on the recommended points, but the rear not so much. What do you all do?

Also, mine has air suspension which shifts the vehicle as I raise it.

 

...also added a satin black hood wrap this past week.

 

Hold lower suspension down until it locks. I use a 6 ton jack stand.

 

Looks nice! Are these the OEM running boards? Also, did the lower black trim on the door come factory installed?

 

The running boards are not OEM, however I bought them from eBay and were shipped from China so they might be from the same factory. They even had a metal strip with very weak glue on the steps which I removed, under it was the “DISCOVERY” seen on the OEM boards. I also bought the side moulding from eBay. I know powerfuluk.com has both those items if you want faster shipping (about a week). I waited about a month buying from eBay.

The important thing for the running boards is the brackets, there are some that offer flimsy welded brackets which I avoided. I bought the ones with the integrated jack points (same as the OEM version).

I painted them black after receiving them.
