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 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...
