does this metal piece come off? between the window and door? my car is flawless other then the black paint chipping off which makes the entire thing look like ****.

to repaint, MUST you tape? looks like you'd have to remove the mirrors to get it off completely, i just wanted to ask before i tried, pried, and bent it all to hell.

thanks!

oh... it's a eg!

 

It's held on by clips, just roll down your windows pull it up.

yeah just slide it back & pull it up & out
if ur having trouble just remove ur door pillar

& painting it wont look too good because its normally coated with like rubber

they guy who is painting my car told me to do this.

roll the window down.

tape up the door below that metal strip. put a good amount there (thick) and enough vertically.

then get some 80 grit sand paper and scuff it up real good to give the paint something to stick too.

then take some spray on bedliner and spray it on a roller brush and roll it on.

he has done it to a couple cars...looks good and keeps the texture like OEM.

its just an idea i plan on doing it to mine

 

could also get them powdercoated, what i'll do if/when mine start peeling...

this sounds like it would come out looking better than just paint

& u dont gotta tape it off because its removable

 

a strip of electric tape provides a quick fix

 

whoah! $46 a side??? i'll paint it before i fork over $100 for both sides... damn.

thanks for all the options/ideas...
that pic with the electrical tape looks amazing!!? lol nice idea!

 

just pull them up and take a razor blade to chip off the rest that is peeling. Flat black looks beautiful. Just remember to sand so the paint sticks.

 

dude same thing with my car too, the paint is comeing off it looks so ugly

 

electrical tape ftw! that's what I have on mine haha except I have had it fly off one time at high speeds, and I just put some more tape on and its been fine ever since, scared me shitless when it happened lol

 

with electrical tape u can still tell where the coating is missing because it dips in

but it still looks alot better
i havent even noticed mine at all since i did it
