I ordered the all window trim pieces from hondapartsunlimited.com for under $300 shipped. YMMV depending on where you buy it, but definitely below $300. In comparison, I was quoted $300 to wrap the trim with Vinyl from the place I got my window tint and clear bra. Also in comparison, the BMW shadowline trim is $1600 + shipping. Bargain!
#Tools:
Heat Gun
Philips Screwdriver
Microfiber Towel
Touchup Paint (optional)
##Part Numbers:
72465-TGG-A11 Molding L Fr Door SASH
72425-TGG-A11 Molding R, Fr Door SASH
72965-TGG-A11 Molding L RR Door SASH
72925-TGG-A11 Molding R RR Door SASH
75474-TGH-A01 Garnish, L RR Pillar Corner
75424-TGH-A01 Garnish R, RR Pillar Corner
#Remove and replace:
##Front Door
Expose the weatherstripping on the B pillar to display a single screw. The rest of the trim is held by 3M Tape. A part of the trim goes behind the mirror base and can pose a problem if not done properly. You can either remove your interior door panel and undo the mirror base, or be lazy and slide it out/in. Be careful though, you will most likely scratch it if you do it the lazy way.
##Rear Door
2 Screws on each end. 3M tape in the middle. Heat Gun will make easier removal of the taped area.
I struggled to remove the trim without bending them and ultimately decided it was not worth the trouble. My second picture shows how f-ed up they became as I pulled them off.
##Rear Garnish
This was the easiest part of the install. There is 3 pegs with foam insulation washers. Pop them off and reinstall new garnish.
Overall, I am very happy with the sport trim on my EX. It looks way better now.
