picky appearance question

I don't have a pic yet to actually describe this and it may be wayyyy to picky...but wanted to see if any of y'all can relate....

the small rectangular strip going across the middle of the driver and passenger side doors....

on both sides of the car, the end of the strip located closer to the rear of the car isnt flush...its peeling a tiny tiny bit - not really visible unless you're staring up close, but enough to be irritating

anyone else finding this?

LOL are you talking about to body side moulding?

People pay hundreds of dollars to get rid of this.

DONT take it off with out pain- there are holes behind it and the paint will be darker, due to a lack of fading.

And it is very visible, lol, WTH are you talking about?

If you're looking to spend some money, then get them removed and have the holes filled in before you get the doors repainted. For a cheap way out, just replace the molding... they're held on with tape or glue.

Remove it, have the holes filled and have the entire Nismo/Aero kit molded
