There is no pony on them just paint. Mine have been done a year and look like new. All I did was clean them very well with brake cleaner and then again with paint thinner. Mask everything real good including the car with a sheet for overspray and paint. I did not clear coat them. The paint is 900 degree farenheit paint and is glossy. Hope the pics help you decide.
