I'm aware that there have been several discussions of side moulding over the
years, and have tried my best to read them all. However, i have still managed
to come up with a few original questions. First, I have two types of door
moulding, one with square ends, and the other has a diagonal end. Not
diagonal in the way the 1/4 panel strips contact the tiger script, but
diagonal if you look at the strip from the top while it is installed. Which
is original? are the reproductions faithful enough that it would be worth
while to repace this imposter?
Second, the short strip just aft of the tiger script on one side was removed
and the holes filled. Are the clips from ss able to be installed from the
outside (which is necessary because of the lack of access)? If not, how else
can this strip be installed. Someone stated that the ss clips 'hold the strip
away from the paint' What does that mean, and do they look original enough to
be mixed with the original rivets?
Lastly, the original rivets are still attached to 3 of the 1/4 panels. Can
you paint the car sucessfully and leave these?
Thanks,
Karl
