Post body side molding

Curious as to if anyone has replaced the body side weather stripping that runs in between the body and the plastic panels that run the length of the car. Mine is coming out and there is a bit missing. This would also be a good time to have the panels repainted. Any thoughts?

I was recently at a swap with 37 968s and this is a common problem. Only had mine a few months, a small clip at the rear wheel well was missing causing the last part of the molding to flare away from the body and the last 2 inches of gasket to flap around, really bugged me. Parts Heaven guy found one of the little, spring steel clips and sent it out quickly. I'd be interested in seeing how to get the entire molding gasket to stay fitting tight. It probably requires adhesive at the inside corners where most of them seem to come loose. <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[burnout]" />
