Hello!
Last year the black door vinyl was ripped and peeling on the 1.8 so I took one of them off and replaced it with black gloss vinyl I got off ebay. Did the trick once I had used ethanol to remove all the sticky crap it left behind. Its a farily tedious task though and cutting the right shape is a pain and cutting a straight line for the back of the door never looks good as original.
i know you can get the OEM vinyl precut from peugeot for something like £12.
but what would it be like to paint it?
I presume as long as you mask off the top and bottom properly you would get a crisp line but what would it be like painting on the existing paint? Last thing you really want to be doing is sanding off the OEM paint D:
Just an idea anyway! Thoughts?
