You mean the Kerb Haters? They take pride in just hitting the kerb, going over it, whatever makes parking easier for them. Here in the UK it's common to see them showing off their hate for kerbs (and wheels) in town centres while parking their car. Makes me want to impound their vehicles...

Appreciate you showing us different products that help protect our cars. As much as I try to be careful (and as much as I take care of my car) I inevitably hit curbs 🤬. I would be interested in seeing a different color maybe clear, but a color that stands out, not my style. But as I tell folks that want to do stuff to their car, if it makes you happy- go ahead. Thanks Brian 👍✌️☮️

I really like this idea, since I’m always super scared to curb my freshly powder coated Integra Type R wheels, they look great, and I do like how they’re thick and not like a sticker, I just wish they were 1/4” wide for a thinner look, the 3/8” looks good on a bigger wheel like that, but probably too much for my 17” wheels.

I bought a product similar to this one for my girlfriend's car--she wanted trim on the wheels to match her paint. I prepped the wheels and ensured that the rims were clean and dry. These work okay for around-town driving, but when she went on the highway going 70mph, one of the rear trim pieces came off due to the speed. It severely marked up the rear quarter panel behind the wheel. Fortunately I was able to polish out the defects, but I do not recommend any product like this.

I'd cut it with a craft knife, the scissors compress the plastic and you CAN see the join. With all these things the issue is longevity and what happens when one starts to come away I can see it might be OK for a temporary cover up for minor scuffing BUT WILL IT STICK TO AN UNEVEN SURFACE ? - I DOUBT IT.

A dynomat roller tool would make short work of the final go-around to ensure the bond. Also worth noting is 3M adhesion primer (94) can stain / discolor the surface.

Several years ago I tried these and just couldn’t get them on straight. Each time, wobbly lines. So I gave up. The adhesive IS legit, though. I’m just probably not patient enough to do a great installation on these, too fiddely. They don’t really look that bad if done right. Not familiar with the red color, that stinks it oxidizes.

I would imagine that when new tires are installed, these would be destroyed and new trim must be installed. Also, I would be concerned they may come off at high speeds.

I wouldn’t spend my money on that. Sorry garbage just my opinion.
