How to replace chrome window trims ?

[onionman100]

Hi Guys...Please can anyone give me some advice on how hard is it to replace all 4 door window trims ?

I need to replace milky trims, and asked a local machanic and he seems to think that they should be quite easy to replace,,,and just pull / unclip from each door.

Not quite sure about that....as Audi wanted over £700 labour to replace 4 chrome window trims ?

Has anyone replaced their trims on the windows ? I can buy the parts for around £150 from dealer.

Any advice / comments would be appreciated

Why dont you just wrap them? i did it on mine all the chrome trims incl. the front grill chrome... took me about 1hour or so very easy job..

That sounds an excellent idea Lenti....but how do I do this ? Please can you advise where I can purchase / buy chrome wrapping from ? Also what about the weather ...is this a waterproof solution ?

Many Thanks

What color is ure car? why dont you use matte black its really nice with that! look at my pic there and ull se, i got mine from a wraping firm or ask firm in which they advertise and make decals for all sorts of things such as car, bus, taxi, yes you can always ask a taxi firm where they did it and just buy the wraping and one very sharp and a little scalpel knife, and then ull do fine

Mr Onionman.... just search the bay for "de chrome tape"
Easy to use..... just make sure trim is spotless before applying.
Much cheaper than buying new trim, and trying to fit it!!
