Body work Trim

[nigxl]

Hi
Should my car have trim on the body and doors to meet up with the bumper line? It has had a respray and just wondered if the trim had been left off?
The car was first registered in January 1982.
Thanks

Yes - three pieces of black trim in line with the black section on the bumper.

I personally wouldnt bother looking. It looks nice n clean and sharp as it is.

Agree 100% with Pete on This But like him this is IMHO

I quite like the original look myself, although I didn't realise they were missing when I bought the car

Well we all like different looks... which is cool.
Speaking from experience many of these side trims got damaged when they were removed as they were bonded on really firm. Once they get bent they dont straighten easily.
Hence they didnt get refitted.

I'll just have to see what Andy says when he has a look at the trim he has. I thought that may be the case.
