Hey all,

I dont know what I would even call this but I recently got a saxo that needs a little tidying up, one of the things I have noticed it that the black linning near the window has creased.. and is starting to crack a little at the bottem.

Is there anything I can do to replace this? I dont know what to search for on ebay or if I would just need a whole new vts door...

Also the bumper is comming slightly away from the body I take it I should just get someone to bolt this up for me?not really noticable but it bothers me,

Ta,

do you mean the strip up the door pillar on the outside of the car between the front and rear side windows?

if yes..

use a heat gun / hair dryer to heat it up and pull it off, most people agree it looks better without it..

Hmmm Thanks,

Yeah I think thats what I mean I dont honestly think from what I can see that the paintwork is going to be looking its best under that, but I think I found somewhere I can find some black to replace itl.

The best option is just removing it..

the paint underneath it should be fine, as it hasnt been exposed to the elements of nature under that strip :y:

IF how ever it is looking rough, you could just use some vinyl to cover it up, Any colour you fancy tbh :y:
