Body side mouldings?

I'm thinking of getting some for my FL2, as my doors keep being scratched and dented. Evil or Very Mad Big Cry

Are they worth the money? Do they actually work?

Sorry for all of the questions, I'm still a newbie. Wink

Cheers

Yes, they work well. I fitted them last year and they have fended off several assaults from determined door thrusters and wayward trolleys in car parks. - 2007(57) XS Auto, Rimini Red, Alpaca Leather.

I find them very good for someone opening their front doors onto my vehicle but to really put people off you need the side steps as they look very aggressive when used together Ralph

Maybe wait for the warmer weather, or apply a heat gun to the strips so it's a little flexible before applying Exclamation
