  • following on from JonRS2 post of parts required to replace lower door mouldings, does anyone know the part numbers for the metal strips to secure the mouldings (or do they come as an integral part of the covers). On my RS2 there are signs that the existing mouldings have a rubber or foam backing. Is this present on OEM parts or maybe is aftermarket fitted by a previous owner.?
    Cheers

        • Since this thread has become the go-to place for info on the lower trims, here's my fix:

          A bit of stainless sheet bent in a steel brake and glued in with a suitable flexible adhesive. Fits like a charm, and there's no gap between the door and the trim piece.

          Not much left of the original steel:

                              • Cheers Vas, that would be great. TBH I won’t trouble you yet unless I can get hold of all of them.
                                I need ideally perfect original parts to take patterns from - anything I make will be a 99.8% visual replica therefore any imperfections will be replicated also. Inserts would be stainless steel. It’s possible to repair some small cosmetic defects but that is all - the shape must be as new
