so i have the upper and lower door mouldings to fit to my car - whats the best way to go about this? Pretty sure most the locating pins are missing so its going to be a bit hit and miss, but it'll piss me off no end if they aint level.
Should I fit the upper or lower ones first?
Going to use a bit of sikaflex and some double sided tape to fit them.
Any tips appreciated.
Cheers
i used double sided foam tape and eurothane, bought some pin striping and stuck at one end of car then went to other lined it up and stuck down, then just follow the line

Use low tack tape along the body to make your level line.
Clean the panel work with wax and grease remover so the tape will fix well.
Also buy a excellent double sided body tape.When tapeing the moulds leave a gaps on the bottom side of the moulds,So if any mosture gets in it will not be trapped,Do the lower ones first.Try to avoid eurothane.The trick is to take your time and do a dummy set up first as the old VL sure is not perfect,But a little time and effort can make it look good.
