I got the wide body side moldings and was wondering if it could be a DIY install or should I have the dealer install it. How hard is it to put on?

Very easy with the proper prep and patience. You can get the install instructions from here: https://hondacuraworld.hostasaurus....SideMolding.pdf

VERY simple to put on. Probably took me a whole 30 minutes including breaks. I did one think differently than the instructions. I put the moldings approximately 2 or 3 inches higher that called for in the instructions. I did this as I feel it provides slightly more protection for the outmost part of the door.

Not hard at all! This is probably the easiest project for a DIY. It's like putting a sticker on (a 40K vehicle, that is). Just make sure you put it on straight in lots of daylight.

I agree with G. I put mine on higher than the recommended place, but mostly for cosmetic reasons.

The hardest part is peeling the tape backing off of the modling.:D

Got them on today, thanks for all the advice. Allthough, on the passenger side, the rear door molding was slightly higher than the front door molding. I was told that you can tell BUT, I know it's off, Oh well. :o
