Door stopper and hinge pin covers- worth it?

[Tom 6-6]

Just wondering if anybody has bought these and installed them on their CX-5?

How are they holding up and are you satisfied? Is there a better supplier to buy them from? They seem to finish the hinges and door latches nice.

Thanks for any input---

I ordered mine from AliExpress and have been extremely satisfied. They fit great (actually have a firm "snap" into place) and they look great. No problems whatsoever. And cheaper than the eBay listing you linked too. You order them separately. They arrived faster than promised.

Go with Ali express. I got mine from there too.

They just snap right in.

I got the stainless steel ones, much better.

can water get trapped underneath them at all?

I got mine from Ali-Express. I think the quality is OK.

I have seen no evidence of that happening.

This has been discussed several months ago in Cheap eBay aesthetics thread. I got mine from AliExpress as minnesotaart suggested for only $4.26 with all 8 pieces and free shipping! The quality is much better than I expected considering the price although they're made of plastic. No water trapping issues either.

Thanks to this thread, I picked up a set of the hinge pin covers and the door stop guards.

Mine came from this eBay seller:

The parts were of excellent quality and arrived in a timely manner (considering they came from China). The door hinge pin guards snapped right into place as did the door stop guards. They are on securely and I tested door opening and closing on each door - no issues. The pieces really finish off the appearance when doors are opened, plus they protect the existing parts.
