Re: Painting the silver trim?

Does anyone have the disassembly diagram on how to remove those window trim pieces? I have been contemplating whether I should paint my silver ones or buy some factory black ones.

I found, online, a wholesale mopar parts site and I just about flipped when I saw how much they wanted for the 3 piece set. $283.00 for the upper piece + $261.00 for the left + another $261.00 for the right side. Grand total = $805.00!!! I'm pretty sure painting will be a fraction of that price... I hope.

There are some beautiful stainless ones available through the aftermarket!

I would trade with you if you like? I work for a Chrysler dealership and to jazz them up a little on the lot, they bought the mopar silver gills. I dissagree with this fully. I am in he process of blacking out the car. I have already had the grill custom painted and had some trim painted. But anyway, if you want silver gills, i would be happy to trade with you. I hate the silver and the black ones are much more to my taste. PM me if you would like them.
