How the Sport package should have come on the sedan
Good-bye chrome around the windows. An all day chore but well worth it. Vinyl applied and it looks great to me.

That would have been nice. Something obvious to distinguish it as the Sport model, beyond that sweet, sweet front bumper on the 2010+ Sport Sedan.
Actually, aren't the side-sills slightly larger on the Sport Sedan than otherwise? It's really hard to tell, but that's how it's advertised. I'd have to find a non-sport and compare side-by-side.

I had a non-sport. There is a very noticeable difference especially side by side.

Nice job - I really like the look.
On a scale of 1-10 (10 being the hardest) - how difficult was that task? And - where did you get the material, etc, etc...
Thx

I'm assuming you're talking about the black vinyl window trim? If so I have a DIY thread here, it was easy IMO and cost about $20-30 depending on shipping.

Question about the vinyl. How does it handle temperature extremes?
Here in Texas, I'm not too concerned about low temps. But - does it loose it's adhesion in high temps? I'm talking 100+...in the shade...for a month or two. In the sun - who knows - lets just call it friggin HOT.
The part being covered is a typical spot for people to push to close the door. Wouldn't want it to slip/slide.
Thoughts?
