Hi all! Have a 2020 Si Sedan and love the look, minus the terrible chrome trim on all side windows (it looks nasty when most other things are black) and the chrome badges. Questions:
1) Chrome top window trim: I stopped by a body shop and he said those window trim pieces (3 per side) are single-use. You can buy new ones for about $30 each but then it didn't seem like he liked the idea of painting them. He told me they didn't come in black but I am pretty sure I have seen them in black on the hatchback. I assume those are shaped differently than the sedan? He also would not paint them on the car -- he said that is a bad idea. Anyhow, suggestion? He said I might be able to get them wrapped by someone where that can be done by leaving them on the car. Not sure I want to spend $500 on this, however.
2) Chrome badges: Can someone point me where to get good or official black badges for the "civic" and "H" on the trunk and also for the "H" on the grill? Also, how do I get the old ones off and the new ones on?
Thanks all!
Joe
