Lately I'm seeing a ton of aleros with silver outline around all their doors.
It looks great on black and dark red cars.
Is it just a standard silver pinstripe that you put on... or is their a kit specifically designed for the alero.
Also... if anybody has done it here, can you post some pics?
Thanks,

Are you talking about the chrome line that goes around the windows on the doors? I thought that was on all Aleros. I've never seen any with pinstriping all the way around the doors.

Oh, that's door guards you can get at any autoparts store.
It just slides on over the edge of the door. I've seen lost of cars with it on every single seam, lol. chrome lining the doors, hood, trunk, wheel wells, everything.

for once, I concur. If you feel like you need the extra protection, you can always get black and it won't be nearly as noticable.
If you like it, though, go for it, just be advised that it starts to peel and the clear top comes off after about 3 months. :)
