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:

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.

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?
