Hi Friends,
My TD's running boards are in good shape but of course, they'll get painted
with the rest of the car. B And the aluminum strips are in good condition...and
riveted on. B There is no rust at the strips. This leads me to the question;
Do I drill out the rivets and install the new Al strips, OR, just use the
strips I have after media blasting? B They will be matte aluminum after media
blasting BUT, the new strips I have now are also matte finish! B I'm thinking I
should leave them in place, mask them off before primer and paint, then install
the new rubber treads after the paint cures. B
Thoughts? B Advice? B Thanks.
