anodized window trim
I am having my 1980 928 painted and am wondering if the aluminum window trim can be re anodized. And, if so would anynoe have a reccomendation.
Thanks for any help

I'm painting my son's 1980 now and I am going to prime the trim with an etching primer and paint with a satin black trim paint....Just be careful putting it back on.
I have no idea if it can be re anodized or what it would cost...I would imagine it would be pricey.

Here's a previous thread on the topic ............ https://rennlist.com/forums/928-foru...ndow-trim.html
Good trim paint seems to give a perfectly good result. That's the way I'm going to go as I've had good results before with that method on other cars. Nicoles overlays sound like a good alternative too ... particularly on easily scratched and chipped lock bezels.

Thank you all for your comments and suggestions. I found a place in Mesa, AZ that will strip and anodize in matte black all five window trims for $125.00. I think this is the way I will go. Thanks again.
