so, i took the vinyl covered rubber piece off the top of my door where the door skin meets the window glass. the rubber/vinyl/whatever was cracked pretty badly, and flaking off. to top it off, some idiot had painted it the same color as the body. it was downright ugly. i took pics, but they turned out crappy. anywho, i took a razor knife to it and am currently stripping all the old covering off. i plan to scuff the metal with 320, then tape off the window seal, and flat black it. if i get a decent pic, i will post it up. if not, yall will just have to take my word for it.

 

all done with the window molding thing. turned out ****. i like it much better than haggard *** blue, cracking and peeling to reveal shiny chrome. scuffed it, cleaned it, taped the rubber part off, bombed it, and back on the car. pics tomorrow, its raining like crazy here. tornados and such...

 

^ Hmmm this sounds cool i can't wait to see it.

 

did my mirrors today the same color as my trim. not sure i like it. may take it all back off and do gloss instead of flat. cant decide.....
