Love the colour combo. Given the choice I would’ve gone for the same.

Anyone got the silver door protectors on a black car?
Am having a bit of a dilemma. Cars black with silver wheels. Not sure too get the matt black ones painted gloss too match the black pack, or just get the silver ones too match the wheels. Roof rails also black. Only worry is that the silver may pitt and perish over time and water ingress will make them look tarnished, a bit like what happens too the plastic centre wheel caps that are on the LR wheels, after a year or so.
The more I look at the black gloss wheels, I am beginning to wish I had ordered them now. Have seen a few on the site which look really smart, and are starting too grow on me now. I never went for black wheels as I thought the whole car would be too black if that makes sense.
Any photos appreciated.

Thanks for the photos Hissinsid.
When I originally saw the door protectors I thought they were far too low. Ours were also below the ridge, but looked as if were originally put on above the ridge like yours, before they realised their mistake and rectified it. Left both sides badly marked above the ridge when were taken off. Yours look too be correct height in my opinion, i.e. look better above the ridge than below it. -

According too the online brochure the side protectors are fitted just under the door ridge. I have seen some cars on here with them fitted above the ridge and some half way up the door.
Can anyone give me feedback as I assume the ones fitted half way up the door will offer the most protection, as opposed too the bottom of the door, or am I wrong?
Just want too double check before I fit mine on. I think the ones half way up the door, look the best, and less chance of the glue coming adrift from the sticky pads. as opposed too the ones down below, getting constantly soaked by rainwater. The ones on last car came adrift within 2 weeks and were fitted below the ridge.
Thanks
