owk...
is it hard/worth it?
had a look at a mates calais' and it looks like the trim is in the rubber, should i replace the whole thingor is there an easier way?

it does add abit off 'class' to the look of ur car.
im not sure how hard it would be, i wouldnt say it looks hard. but maybe some other members can help out.

I love the look of the calais so go for it.

Yeah it's all one piece and you have to change the whole rubber seal - just held on by screws. The strips on the doors themselves (along the bottom of the window) i'm not sure about (worst case you might need to take the windows out?)

Does anyone know the part numbers and prices for the Calais trims? I'd like to replace both of mine with the more chunky chrome Calais strip over the top of the doors too
