Pics of new window trim
Just got new window trim installed since my old trim was faded and looked terrible. Now it looks amazing.
Before:

After:

I looked on the billing statement and there were no part numbers on it but I can call the bodyshop and see if I can get the part numbers.

No, Those two roof rails were really expensive with the labor and everything so for now im just leaving them alone.

Do you mean the pillar on the rear doors separating the windows? yeah I had that changed too.

Yeah I want to change it too, it was more expensive to have those pieces changed because it takes so much time and labor to take them out and replace them so I will just get them replaced at a later time.

Yeah, we should try to get a group together from our area to meet up sometime.

yeah, the front is what i'm worried about, haha. the rear no problem; that isht was coming off already anyways. so the method is to just keep pulling, and the front will come off?
