How to Install Black Covers on the Pillars of a BMW X3

Model: BMW X3 MK 2, F25 - Years 2010-2017
Part: Car door

Let's see how to install black covers on the pillars of a BMW X3: first, clean the surface where you intend to apply the covers with isopropyl alcohol to ensure a perfect grip. Take the first cover (you can purchase them on AliExpress with code 1005007740653772 for 6.41 euros for the entire kit of 8 pieces - free shipping over 10 euros) and peel off the protective film from the adhesive, starting from one corner, without removing it completely. Place the cover on the pillar without pressing it, aligning the rear edge first; once satisfied with the alignment, gently press the cover while slowly pulling away the adhesive tape cover. When it is well adhered, remove the outer film and repeat for all the pillars of the car.
