Hi Guys,
I really think to finish off the look of my car I need the brushed alu door surrounds on my car. What is involved in fitting these? I believe they cost an arm and a leg? Anyone got a cheap source... Woody?
See this:
Can anyone photoshop my car here to have them?
Cheers,

They are very expensive, at least in S4. I have couple RS4 rear door trims for sale, I don't need those. The long surrounding over the windows costs 270€ in Germany.

duh , sorry i've got mirrors ,,,,, I've got the alloy trim from 4 rs4 door's . To fit it you have to strip the door back to a shell , the trim is riveted on from the inside , it'll take about 1hr a door. g

And for changing the longest trim you have to remove the rear side window. And that is glued

There are rivets under the glass.

Isn't the trim Zero is talking about fitted to the roof and the doors?
He needs for a saloon, not an estate
