Exterior side trim May 21, 2020, 04:49:57 PM After the ravaging success that was my front bumper respray I’ve decided to do the same with my side trim. A few them seem a bit bent out of shape, so bend away from the door a little, even when they’ve got all the clips.I could try and tiger seal them on, but that’s probably a last resort. Thought about getting a heat gun, heat it up and try and bend it back?Anyone done something similar? They are original VW so I’d rather salvage them then buy some copies
