I bought some of the ABS hinge covers. Not impressed as they do not provide full protection (towards the door) so they are not installed. I will be ordering these.

Props to R3 - they reached out to me to make things right when I had some issues with the product. They did so without me even reaching out to them to complain. Kudos to them, this is what great companies are made of.

Man, I should not be installing my own. I’m way too much of a perfectionist and my skill with this is not even close to my expectations. It’s by no means “bad” - but I really want perfection and I just can’t get it.

2 hours so far, and only the rear doors are done. Busted out the heat gun to help, and using a mixture of water + Johnson & Johnson baby shampoo + alcohol in a fine misting spray bottle. Torture.

Again, it’s not because the product is poor - it’s becsuse my skills just aren’t where I want them to be.
Same here - I kept going thinking my skills would improve during the install and I am unhappy with the outcome.
Going to need to be redone.

i just received mine and will be installing today. Nervous because I’m a perfectionist. Will try to take photos as I go to show the process.

From a fellow perfectionist, don’t stress. When it all dries you won’t know it’s there. Any little bubbles that were maddening you while applying will work themselves out. Almost a year later, I never even think about mine. I forget they’re there until a post like this pops up and reminds me. I don’t even notice or pay special care when I wash the Jeep.

Best part? No chips. The things work. Should come installed from the factory.

Perfect. Took me a while on the first one, I think it looks pretty good. I’m going to move on to doing more of them now.... might take a bit of time.
