You mean the stuff between the Side windows and the Doors? I fancy ripping mine off but i thought it was a Body Shop Job though. Is it that handy to do?

Its an SX, and i wanna fit the Grey SR Trim for Round the windows, but the Vynal is about half an inch short, top and bottom. Dont worry, i have nice NEW Vynal to fit over it. :D

Thats exactly what i'm scared of too. I haven't the money to get it repaired if i fuck it up.
