I have recently put on my oem kit, but i have a question for everybody here about the black rubber along the edges. Did you guys just leave them on black, paint em, or peel em off. I don't really like the look of a black line on an all white car. I even though about checking home depot or something for a white weather stripping i could even use, or even silicon.

Any input/feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks!

 

Most people I know with the kit on PY and CW have left them black... Some painted them the color of the car, but the paint soon chipped off.... Don't worry about it, and leave them black, it still looks good.

 

i painted mine...but then it harderned the rubber strips
i don't know how that affected the sealing properties over the long run...but for the 4 months until my R was stolen, i didn't noticed any problems...hth

oh btw..it was a CW

dude...what the **** are you talking about
they never made the OEM kits in Type R colors....

mine were black and i had to paint them...

 

i bought the frost white kit from radley and they were black

on a side note, i believe they did make the oem kit in CW (but only in Canada?)

 

i was talking about the rubber stip color dude.
not the oem kit

i know that you can get the rubber stip in the CW color.
