Are you looking for all of the exterior trim? If so, be expected to pay a bit for it. Finding a set in good condition is tough, but if I was looking I'd search eBay, check the "Parts for Sale" section in this forum, post a thread in the "Parts Wanted", and check any local salvage yards

shops won't do molding jobs for this exact reason? This actually concerns me as my trim/molding is also rusted and flaking off... every time I wash her, the molding catches pieces of cloth from my towel while I dry her. I was hoping to shop around and find one of the many auto body shops around Vegas and have my trim/molding fixed up someday... Got the idea at SEMA when I saw some window tinting vendors with trim/molding from the rear hatch of a late 80s RX7 in pristine condition.

u guys should do your own trim dont bring it to a shop its sooooo easy...
all of it clips on except the doors have 1 bolt each and the back wrap arounds have 2 i think... hrdest part is the very back (thankfully it never gets ruined) under the plates... if i didnt just total my supraand half of my trim i would send u guys it for free... just make sure to keep all your old trim for the plastic clips u can reuse all the old trims clips the new stuff WILL HAVE BUSTED CLIPS!!!
