Just tried out on my driver door, by putting the tape on the recommended position. The door can't be closed no matter how hard i slam. I need to slam with my hand on the handle. Material seems a bit too thick.
Now I put in another position, the door can be slammed close without forcing, ie, push the door hard and it will close tight, no need to use hand to follow through.
Have to hear the wind noise tomorrow, whether the way I stick the tape has any effect. Thanks Corgan for your group buy effort.

that jia lat ah :D but give it a while.. will season out then shld be fine liao... one thing u can try is to close the door with the window down a little. It will help to reduce the force needed to close the door. ;) cos the air inside can escape easier.
Alpha78:
Yup. It's not so much of trapped air cannot come out that causes door closing to be difficult. When the door is slammed and the gap is about 10cm, the edge nearer the wheel arch would have been in contact with the tape, and there's a bouncing effect.
Now I'm wondering if I should break the double sided tape and stretch the material to make it thinner. That means I need to buy additional double sided tape to cover the gaps introduced by the stretch.
