karmannski 0 Posted August 25, 2015 I have received new sample yesterday, will put some pictures shortly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
karmannski 0 Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) Trims arrived, preaty much same as MK2 only bit more solid under. Fits well on the car. I have spend some time yeasteday and today trying to fit clips. Each trim is 115 cm long so there is plenty of trim if something will go wrong. But always start with the front, rear is a easy bit. I have removed old clips 1st After cuting front end relised that top part of the trim is to thick, so need adjusting. Video : Front Rear Ready, fronts could with a bit more cut in 1-3 mm but overall looks ok, I will go and fit this on the car and use it daily. NEXT I'm about to order first batch, once that will arrive I will know the total costs. Im still not 100% sure on the price, so please do not ask. I have fitted it on the car fits fine. It is to dark to take any pictures. I will do tomorrow. Did you enjoy?

karmannski 0 Posted August 26, 2015 On the car Front lifts up , with is not good, MK3 rubber is a bit harder/solid from MK2 and I think that ths is what cause it. Need to order another 2 samples of MK2 to be sure. But it could be the damage front clip. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Bowen 1 Posted August 26, 2015 How do you pull the existing ones off, mine started to come off at the front edge and i will get round to pulling them off and re sticking them down, are there clips? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rocket Ron 1 Posted August 26, 2015 Your have to unclip it from the back as it is a push fit then slide front off. It is also held in place with double sided tape for its length. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karmannski 0 Posted August 26, 2015 As I susspected, the front clip I used was faulty. I had another one, not 1st class but do the job, it holds the trim where it should be. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fendervg 33 Posted September 15, 2015 Great news - very interested in these as I'm collecting parts for a full body respray. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rocket Ron 1 Posted September 16, 2015 Great news had respray just need these to finish. Any idea on cost yet I presume lots cheaper than OEM and the more that order the cheaper they will be. Going on the interest in these you could be busy. Cheers again for all your efforts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
