Default supra body help

I am having some trouble with my door bumper trim piece. The mettle plate in it has rusted causing it to bubble out. I pulled it off and I am just not quite sure if it is fixable. Could any one give me suggestions on what to do?

Looks pretty bad. That road salt did some real damage. I think replacement is the only way to go. The fasteners are completely rotted away.

Any ideas on a price, or a place to get a new one?

I dont know, but there is a link somewhere in the forums that has a list of the trim + pricing. That trim was the worst thing they could have put on the Supra. I looked for a long time for my car and every single one I found had massive rust from the trim area as well as the trim bubbling due to the metal trim inside. My car now has aftermarket trim (glued on I believe) with 100% rubber. If you go that route, pay close attention to the trim holes. They can rust as well.

Thanks for the info. You said you have rubber replacements? do they look the same and can I see pictures? And Il ask the dealer when I go to pick up my ks connectors.

I got a lot of pics in the post I started:
http://www.toyota-supra.info/forums/...w-answers.html

Scroll down about 5 pics and you will see the trim.

The front trim is still stock.
