LOL!! Yea as far as i know they all come with black pillars.

 

[Shamu]

Oh yeah, your right, I forget that.... Its only the P1's that dont have them... like me!

Pretty bad observation really cos a family we've had a P2 SLX, a P1 Si, a Pi SRi and a 1.8E N16! I should be more observant Should know them like the back of my hand...

 

[always_sideways]

Awww Sexual LoL - nice car mate, like wot u've done to it

 

[24SEVEN]

looks better with teh dor strips definately I think. leave them black and leave them on. bit of contrast goes well.

 

[dub_almera]

sideways, are you up for the meet chawkies organising??

 

[always_sideways]

i like them off 2! Dub_almera when and where is the meet?

 

[Axl]

How did you remove them if I may ask?
Thanks
Axl

 

[always_sideways]

With a heat gun, heat on the door strip itself and the glue behind it melts. then just pull them off. Very easy to do. Here is the sort of heat gun incase you are looking for one.

I think it breaks up the big expanse of the door......you can look too smooth.

Totally agree there wished id kept mine on. Colour coding seems the way to go.

 

[Jonathan]

[crs]

Those Urban Racer 7 alloys look well on the almera. I know they used to be mine. lolz

 

[always_sideways]

is your car an esteem mate?

how do you make sure u dont blister your paint when using the heat gun?

 

[always_sideways]

Yes its an esteem!

just keep the heat gun on the plastic and it shouldnt damage the paint.

 

[CoV]

kool mines an esteem too shame about the 1.4 lol

i know it aint an esteem thing but dont you just love the colour of ours!

as for the strips did they come off easily with the gun or did they still need a fair amount of force?

also did you say your car is lowered?
