Exterior Window Trim
Anyone know where i can buy this used? i've tried local yards and no one seems to be able to help me. My g/fs GS is in great shape but window trim has been removed by a previous owner to repaint the car and the shop broke most of the clips on them, well needless to say they used 3m double sided tape to hold them back on. Problem is they are warped and look pretty bad not to mention she gets a lot of wind noise goind down the highway.

I had this guy repair mine i seen the process all he did was drill two holes with some kind of wierd looking screw...then he took this air powered tool and shaved the screw holes away he pretty much shaved the door trim down till it was bare metal then he took some kind of body prep or bondo and leveled the door trim then primed it and its ready for paint it was a 2 hour long process now the window looks as if it came from the factory...i'll take pictures if your interested in the after math of this process
