New Bodyside Molding -- Installed - 8/24/2007 8:31:01 PM    biscuit Posts: 233 Joined: 2/19/2007 Status: offline I've been looking for some door protection for my 07 Outlander for a while. The Euro Mitsubishi bodyside molding is nice, but would cost about $400 without paint. So I did some research and found out that www.Sportwing.com now makes a kit for the 07 Outlander, even though it's not listed on their site yet. It comes pre-painted, just give them the paintcode from www.paintscratch.com and they match the color. I ordered mine on Sunday and it arrived on Friday. The color match is perfect and the shape fits nicely. The kit is 4 pieces, cut at the correct angle for between the doors. They use 3M tape and provide 2 alcohol wipes, 2 Pro-Bond adhesive promotor bottles, and an instruction sheet that goes through the process and gives measurements. They call for 8 1/4" up from the black lower sill in front, and 9 1/4" in back. I found that to be a little low so I went 8 1/2 and 9 1/2. The installation was quick and easy, it took me about 20 minutes max. Here are some photos: < Message edited by biscuit -- 8/24/2007 8:33:29 PM > _____________________________ 07 Outlander XLS 4WD Nav/Luxury/Sun/Sound/Back-up Camera Post #: 1

Not bad. But my Outlander is already black, so I guess I can go with the OEM one for a few $ less. I think that deal is very good though for those with other colors. But I just wonder, it looks too low on the pics. I saw some pictures with OEM moldings on and it's mounted almost on the middle part of the door. _____________________________ PAXTech auto & motorsports blog http://paxtech.blogspot.com For the latest in Outlander News from around the world: Outlander Online Community- http://outlander.freeforums.org (in reply to biscuit) Post #: 10
