Loooks good John , is that the matte finish carbon from vivid ? The first stuffI bought was interior only but put it on pillars anyway like the look but the sun faded it really bad and turned gray instead of black so I peeled it off then I got the gloss carbon finish the last batch and didnt like the way it looked. I couldn’t figure out how to take keypad out of pillar, yours looks good John. ��

Thanks Joe. No that vinyl is some 3M 1080, it looks like a satin finish to me, they didn't make mention of finish when I bought it. I think this is where I got it, can't find my order.

Joe, to take that cover off, pull off the weatherstripping on the front door b pillar, you'll see 4, 7mm screws, take them out. On the backside of the window sill moulding, on the inside of the door, there is another screw that takes a T20 torx. Then, I took a trim removal tool, and popped the cover where the screws are, you can then slide it back. Then you can get to the clip on the keypad, and just fish it back thru the hole. You'll see what I mean when you get to it. Saw a video this morning on it, and can't find it now.

I might have enough left for your doors, I'll take a look in the morning.
Just looked, I don't have enough. At any rate, I can show you how to take it apart if you haven't figured it out.

That's some good info with how to wrap it and take the pillars off. Do you have a link to what you bought? I'm interested in seeing the tail lights tinted.
