|
|
We did our first mod to Nicole's xD tonight. It's a super easy, super cheap (free), three step process.
Step 1:
-get ahold of the black tape on the B-pillar
Step 2:
-peel
Step 3:
-crinkle up black tape and admire the new look

I think you should reword the "we" in your write up. As I remember it I peeled off most of the vinyl, you took pics. :P |

| I think it looks great, and would look just as good on a lighter car. |

| I wish someone would try this on a light colored xD so I could see what it looks like before I do mine. Maybe it's time for a photochop. :) |

| It will break the line that was created by visually connecting the windows and will make the car look taller. If that's the look you are after - full speed ahead. |

| I think someone with a xB figured it out, we just started peeling and hoped it was the same for the xD. |

| It'd been "figured out" way before xB came out. There is a reason that black vinyl is there... |
