I wonder if these things would look okay on my pearl white? They would probably look great on a darker car.

Anyone know how they attach?

I've tried compound and it works for a while but not for long.

Default When I have my stongard installed, part of the package is 2 pairs of door cup protectors..

That protect the paint from scratching.

Just checked out their website and you can order them for $10.59

Check out my sig and tell me if you can see them or not..
