B-Pillar Vinyl

[C.A.R.]

Righto,

My B-pillars are peeling more than a Ginger after 2 weeks in Ibiza, so I'm going to rip them off.

I know you can get textured black stuff off of eGay to replace them with, but I already have some gloss black vinyl at home. Has anyone ever done the B-pillars in gloss black and do we think it'll look good?

The materials will be free anyway so it's all gravy, will be having a crack at this come the weekend, just wondered if anyone has any jpegs to share.

Did mine, looked tidy, freshened it up pretty well

[4WayDiablo]

Do it and find out...

[Kezzieboy]

I'll try and find a photo, I think it looks much better in gloss.

Can sort've see it in this one:



And this one:

Looks good, you almost can't tell it's got too many doors! (sorry, had to be said)

I'll have a crack at the weekend and post the results. Does the rubber trim around the window just pull away? (obviously with the window down) as I'll want it done proper

[Danny2009]

Yeah just pulls off with a bit of a tug mate.

Does anyone have a link for the stuff to use on eBay as mine need doing

[Jonny b]

Use a hairdryer to get it off, and the ones from pug are about £6 cut to shape

[Birk]

I did mine in that carbon wrap the other day, due to the old ones looking crap

Same here looks good, done my nephews with oem from pug

[bowers]

Why not take em off and just leave it? Is it not body coloured underneath?

[1616six]

Because they look shite without them..

[declantg]

looks a bit plain tbh with none,

[Eeyore]

i bought the cheapest black stuff on ebay but didnt like it as it was too dark. looking at these pictures makes me want to do it now though! Another job for the list!

[Frosty]

So Peugeot do the stuff to replace the old vinyl?

[Jonny b]

Yep got from them for a 106 and a 306 bud

[wonkey18]

mine doesn't look shit without it? well i don't think so...

[Grant]

I quite like them without TBH

Just a PITA removing all the sticky sh1t

[declantg]

[samass]

[Jonny b]

[CJ_Derv]

Gonna copy me again, eh...?

[rocker8742]

Mine are carbon wrapped and look pretty good

[bowers]

How do you take it off without fooking the seal up?

[Jonny b]

Put the window all the way down and pull the seal out, it sit behind the seal anyway

[bowers]

What about the black lump at the bottom of the vinyl tho? Looks like its attached to it

[Jonny b]

What the black strip that runs along the window? Get a trim tool or a screwdriver ha ha depends how much you like your paint and pop it off

[kyleo92]

Hmm.... I Think that Ph3 looks really good without them.. Mines peeling like hell as well

[rocker8742]

I think it suits some of the lighter colours Wonkey yours deffienately looks awesome
