Matt, do you mean the black plastic side sills? Yeah, I'm painting them with a quick shot of satin black and then I'll stick' em back on. If you mean the bodyside molding, no, that's history.

Thanks for all the nice comments guys, I really do appreciate it.

Car looks great, but is it just me or is the rear end suffering from the DOT "rear end higher than the front end" syndrome? I can't tell form this angle, but the car is NICE!

The rear is most definitely suffering from "DOT". The euro bumper is about 30lbs lighter than the US bumper so that didn't help the ride height any. Tomorrow I'll drop it with the eccentrics and if that isn't enough I'll re-index the t-bars.

The originals are 2048 x 1536. I don't think I can upload anything that big here.

T-Bars aren't that bad. I have done them a few times and I am just a normal weekend mechanic....

t-bars aren't that bad (done the right side like 5 times, now its's purrfect), but I haven't been able to turn the the eccentrics and don't know who to ask... maybe need some air-power cause i don't have da torque. T-bar wise, make sure you take measurements and/or mark the positions FIRST.

Was referring to the door moulding. I take it you have left of the 16 Ventiler badges as well?
