I'm not sure if I like it or not. I'm surprised it looks as good as it does. I figured the underflushness would be a lot more obvious.

Definitely set up a link cause I'm looking to go the same direction with intake and all.

Kickass pillars... no pillars, whatever... It looks the same as the rest of the door in the pics, but can you notice any difference in color / faded up close? I think mine're coming off tomorrow...

In the second pic it looks like the guy in the passenger seat is picking his nose... :p

Looks good. Is there a line at all after removal or does it come off really clean?

1.Not sure, the bulb codes are in one of the forums under a sticky.

2. its pretty easy to install..you kind of have to have small hands. I have big hands and i was scraping them up in the tight spaces,but i managed to do it..takes a few minutes on each side.

3.I got them from autoillumination.com for like $4 each

4. Sure,why not? looks good at night, enjoy!

He probably was. God knows.lol

There might be a line of glue left over from the tape but it easily comes off. Just open the door,put a hairdryer to the backside of the tape and let it heat for a minute...than peel it off while heating it up at the same time.Comes off in 5 minutes.Peel it off slowly otherwise the tape breaks and your left with small annoying pieces to peel off instead of 1 big piece.

With them off it looks more like a four door, with them ther eis an illusion of a 2 door, especially if the windows are tinted. I don't mind it but prefer the 2 door look.
