it looks pretty good. but beware of ebay stuff. try to find it somewhere else. sometime they dont tell you that you have to modify the **** they sent you, just to make it fit. alot of the ebay stuff comes from other vehicles and fits our car "close enough"

just because it's on ebay doesn't make it crap... it's cheap, and if it is a piece of crap big deal you spend 20 dollars... if you like it, then it will be well worth it...

it looks like the door side moldings that prevent your car from scratching.

you can get stuff like that at the hardware store. 350Z guys did it to accent the bars on their front grill. it's just like chrome weatherstripping cut to size. very easy to DIY.

^^ I've seen that on some cars and it looked nice, and others and it looked totally like crap. I'd just say try it out and see what ya think .

You gonna use the same exactly orange as your exterior?

I've seen this stuff at my local Auto Zone for about $12. Looks cheesy to me though.

I have those vent trims from ebay. Its quite easy to do. I installed mine while waiting in line at the car wash. They are plastic base with chrome overlay but definitely make a difference. I have the satin nickel with my ss

Pooch, go down to pep boys, or advanced auto, and pick up some chrome door edge trim. Hell i think wallmart has it too, then measure the vents, and cut it with a dremel. 98% sure it will work just as well, and the stuff is like 3 bucks for 2 3 foot strips..... try it
