emmmmm.... NO lol why would i do that? couldnt be arsed with the faf on and then after finding out the paint underneat is f***** having to paint it. looks fine with the stripd IMO
 
Because the rear part of the strip is not aligned and not horizontal :s Usualy on pre facelift I prefer not to remove them.
 
so got up today ment to be early but forgot about the clocks going forward lol. fitted the smooked headlights look so much better the new bulbs went in to. and then the detailing started. the results are class. i waxed it with dodo juice top stuff expencive tho :p

thnks mate. how hards it to change handles? anyone? trying to get spome pics of the car now its lowerd but the weather is ####e then sunny lol
 
You have to entirely remove the doors inside panels. Hardest thing is not removal, but to refit the panels. Good luck !
 
removed my tegs door pannels loads of times shouldnt be to bad anyway will get them done one night this week fingers crossed

yer just need to get them on. maby tomorrow night i am thinking after work. car feels amazing so much flater in the corners. need some pics asap
 
chrome handles are now on the car |:D very easy todo worst bit was getting the doorcard rubber back in the window gap lol first one went straight in second one was a lil ###### :p
 
Not surprised they wanted £112 from you mate, was £33 to replace my drivers side chrome handle from Nissan before Christmas. Makes me cringe when I think I might have to buy a fog light kit from them if one doesn't show up on eBay soon. Nice work on this SI by the way! (Y)
