I just got a new TSX and I wanted to put door cup scratch guards on it because on my other car there are some many scratches on all the door cups!

I can get this installed at a shop for $80. I was looking for a cheaper option. May be buy something from ebay and install it myself. Do you guys have any recommendation?

Thanks

 

^ Acura sells one for $42.

Thanks for the link. I think that is for the door edges not the door cups. I actually think the door cups are more likely to get scratched than the door edges.

 

Go to Xpel.com and at the bottom of the page is a dealer locator window. Type in your zip code to find a dealer in your area that has a DAP designation, that means they have the software capable of cutting them in-house. Get a quote for getting the hood/fenders/mirrors and bumper covered and they would probably include the door cups in that price, or just ask how much for the cups. Eighty bucks is kinda high, I throw away enough film to do 100 of them almost every day.

 

how do door cups even get scratched? unless you have long sharp fingernails?

 

I think he/she means the little compartment on the bottom of each door near the speaker. That or the hole near the handle. I'm not really quite sure though.

 

The door cups on all my cars have a lot of scratches after a while. They basically look like the photos posted in this thread:

I'm not sure why you don't have this problem.

And, my finger nails are not exceptionally long or sharp
