Mr. Wolfe
Here's a couple of shots of how I got my car and what I'm aiming for.

Mtec1 did not come in that color, so that will be a dealer add on.

started the shadow line conversion. new shadow line deck lid, fender and quarter trim, refurbished shadowline door trim off a 318is, rough sanded and painted bright trim on top of doors, quarters and A pillars.
Originally posted by bradnic View PostAlso worked on the shadow line trim for the driver's door. I have new bright trim for both doors and quarters, so I decided to just rough sand
the existing trim and experiment with some SEM black trim paint.
original trim
rough sanded with 500 grit paper, then applied the trim paint. It was too glossy but some light sanding with 1200 grit took care of that. also took 1200 grit to the existing shadow line belt line door trim I had. It matched the gloss and color of the new quarter panel shadowline trim perfectly after sanding.
here's a quick trial fit. still a lot to do but we like it, and if we get tired of it I have a new set of bright trim waiting for the car.
next steps:
-- finish door assembly
-- paint/dye carpet, paint rear quarters and top deck lid vinyl bits
-- shadowline on other door and deck lid
-- repair pass door window regulator (slips down and makes noise when at top position).Last edited by bradnic; 09-02-2017, 11:49 AM.I BUY/SELL REFURBISHED CM5907s & CM5908s
