I think the chrome side posts are a good way to alleviate the "spotty post" problem and they do look good...but only if the rest of the PT has other aftermarket chrome accents, like a chrome beltline, chrome wheels, etc. I saw a PT in Louiseville that had only the chrome posts and the effect was, to me, not pleasing.

Chino, let me know how difficult or not the installation is. Those look pretty sharp. I am thinking that they would look good on my Silver PT.

I can tell you that even before I install them.....
"They are a piece of Cake" to install. Peal off the covers on the 3M tape and stick them on... that's it.
Be sure to clean the area first though!

For me, it gets just a little more complicated, being that I will have to remove my vent visors from the windows and re-install them over these covers.

Not quite, I was dying to install them yesterday, but it was Valentine's day and that would have been charged as a CRIME in the "Wifey's Book of Law" if I had installed them then...

Soooo, I will get sick in a couple of hours from now, leave work early, head over to my brother's shop and install them there being that it's a little too cold outside and fianally take the pic to show the results...

To tell you the truth, I am not sure how this mod is going to look because I remember when these first came out...
I actually didn't like them!

Soo, I will definitely be asking for everyone's opinion, whether good or bad...

I can take any sort criticism!

From Race&Street
for $67.00 w/shipping and "scripted"...

You have the obtion of adding "PT Cruiser" on these (scripted by a lazer) or no script, which is cheaper.

Installation was a b!tch for me... due to the fact that I had to remove all the vent visors on the doors!
I had to use a heat gun and remove all the tape that had been there for almost 2 years...

Well, as promise, here are some pics...

we all know how we love pics here!
