Without the visors

with visors

The trick is to fold down and tuck in the tape neatly into the rubber section to prevent peeling off
To do the bottom straight chrome strips is the same must put the window down make it easier to tuck in the tape :) the rear doors is harder because you gonna need 2 tape to cover the curve bit :) other than that this is a budget mod looks good if done right :)
