Got my strips painted and went down to the shop to see the results, I just noticed that I was shipped two right chrome strips.. I am pretty sure Gary is out of stock of these now and was curious if anyone possibly recieved two lefts and needs one of my rights?

I did email Gary but havent got a response yet so wanted to check on here..

whats the install process on these,...do they just flip out and in

phister

remove side marker then pop off the impact strip and you can easily remove the clips holding the chrome pieces on. They're pop on as well but they're pretty tough to remove.

Another member named Milkman had the same exact issue. I got mine long time ago and never got around to painting them and installing them. Hope mine aren't both the same side as well. The shop is in Socal and when Milkman went they were out of stock of the chrome strip.

do the stock chrome strips fit into these? if so i have both left and right

phister

No they wont fit. They're long than the OEM ones.

Yea OEM ones are shorter because of the corner light, the Euro Strips are longer and take the place of the corner light so the chrome piece is slighly longer.. Gary was a stellar guy and gave me my money back but they are already painted and I hate to see them just sitting so I guess Ill have to try to still salvage them in some way. Maybe filling in the grooves of where the chrome was and make them all flush and vinyl wrap them (which is the most easiest, however the money I spent on paint is pretty much a loss) or find a way to fill them and have them repainted to look mint... Hmmmmmmm time to get creative i guess!
