Vinyl on doors...

[Courtney]

Theres that little black bit of bumpy vinyl on the doors by the windows... whats underneath it? i hate it. and one of them is starting to peel which is annoying to say the least... will it be body coloured under there?

 

[Karl]

Do you mean the bit on the front doors in between the front and rear side windows?

 

[Courtney]

Yeah, sorry i wasn't very specific :lol:

 

[Karl]

Yep you will have white paint under there. All you will need to do is clean all the sticky stuff off the door once ou have removed the trim

i like the carbon vinyl

Heat it up and it should come away quite cleanly leaving minimal residue, which a tar and glue remover will deal with easy peasy.

Mine is coming off after one of the corners shrank slightly in the sun :lol:

 

[Courtney]

I don't want to take it off and not like it... Might have to get my Photoshop hat on later ;-)

If you could I'd be interested to see, since I will be removing it (probably this week) and wanna see what it's like first.

Al has already done It if I remember correctly. Have a look at his pics

 

[maggi200]

What colour is his though? Black? I need to see it white as the black breaks it up nicely

 

[Courtney]

I will do it when I get chance. Thinking about it, it might be a bit odd because the windows are all black with a White strip down the middle might make the car look less slick?

I think it might look odd white like just looking at my picture and imagining were the vinyl is white I just imagine it would just look wrong

 

[Courtney]

Right, excuse the bad photoshop job as i don't have all the time in the world at the moment..

Not too keen but maybe if James takes the plunge and it looks good ill follow suit if i like it :lol:

P.S. if you zoom out it doesn't look such a shocking job

 

[Leanne]

Sorry I'm not a fan

Remember mine haven't got "gangzta" grade tints

 

[Ollie133cup]

not for me im afraid..

 

[Courtney]

Remember mine haven't got "gangzta" grade tints

LOL, when i sent my car to my cousin for them to be done he said "how dark do you want them" so all i replied was i wanted to see out of them!

I don't think I'm going to do it, it just breaks it up too much on a white car - if it was black or maybe a darker colour then it wouldn't look so odd..?

"Gangzta" :lol:

the white just stands out too much, but not sure what it would look like on a car without the tints may not such a harsh change?? Can always prove us wrong James
