I contacted the seller and he said the problem is resolved.

got them today, and I can say is wow!!

talk about 100% perfect fitment, even simon would agree! Perfect width, perfect lines!

I took some pictures and will post them soon. I think its probably one of my favorite mod, reasonable price and great looks!!

Also, the seller was simply superb and I really liked his communication through out the process. Would definitely buy from him again, maybe the carbon fiber ones, if he has them

Does it get in the way of the shadowline trim at the bottom part of the window? In other words, would you be able to take the bottom shadowline trim off if the pillar overlays are installed. I'm thinking what if you want to install the gloss shadowline trim?

I'm thinking about ordering this product but I definitely want all of the trim to match.
How easy is it to remove the trim for painting?
Or would wrapping it with gloss shadowline trim tape be a better option?

No it doesn't get in the way, just like when u swap ur trim from chrome to matte black one. For me personally, I am planning on having my trim painted gloss black, but maybe the vinyl would be a much cheaper option.
