My door trim on the outside of my car is fading really badly and starting to look white, when the car is dark green this isn't a good thing. Anyway, I don't have the money to get them repainted so I was debating about taking them off. Has anyone done this and if so is it just like removing the emblems off the car? Are there any holes or anything else I should be aware of that is not noticeable from looking at the car? Any help is appreciated.

 

you mean the pillars next to the window? I hear it is the same as taking off the emblems, heat gun...and they come off no screws or anything try it man....................

 

Could we just tape off the sides and use some stuff from paintscratch.com?

 

If you mean the bump strips on the doors. Mine are fading as well. But you cannot just take them off, there are holes.

I'll look into that. . . Last time I looked there they only had stuff for american cars, although it may just be the area I live in. Maybe they can order the color I need.

 

Does anyone have any pics of them painting the door molds? I would like to see how it turned out. Thanks!

 

I belive Shadow removed the door bumpers, I don't know exactly what he did but I am sure if you search you can find more info. Keep in mind the door bumpers are your first defense against A$$holes in parking lots.
