I need a complete set of very good or excellent condition door moldings if anyone has a spare set. I believe there should be 8 pieces in all.
Message me if you have and we can try and negotiate a price...
Thanks

For the Linley ?. Aren’t they piano black, just get yours resprayed, at least they’d be matching and like new, I think OB sprayed some with plasticoat and they looked terrific.

When mine was resprayed I took them all off before it went into the bodyshop. While I didn't have the car I cleaned them all off and sprayed them with bumper black. Did the same with the front grille and bumpers when I got it back, looks perfect.

The moldings and a number of other items were stolen from my lockup last week. Moldings were stored in a box as I had removed them prior to painting my P38 and are valueless to whoever stole them. Only joy I get is to think of thieving cnuts face when he opens the box on his dining room table, or wherever thieves open their “loot”, only to find carbody moldings.
Still searching for replacement set....

With or without the chrome strips? Just checked the part numbers and availability and surprisingly the ones with the chrome strips are actually cheaper. Unfortunately, not all are available .I need to visit my local Range Rover dismantler next week, I'll ask in there although I suspect it is something they either don't keep or leave on a door when they sell that.

I wish karma on the scum bags, nothing of worth to them, but a head ache to you.
I’ll also see what I can find..

The Linley had no chrome stripes.... that being said I can’t be fussy. I’m planning on having whatever set I put on painted.
Have searched three or four breakers yards here with no luck...
Thanks

Good news but if it's anything like body shops over here, you won't see it until Christmas. You can guarantee it won't be done when they say it will.

Gilbertd you cursed me dammit....
I showed up at the paint shop with the vehicle and the way the manager looked at me told me that the P38 was not going to get a makeover today!
Turns out he never put my reservation in the books but he can get me in on the 2nd of January 2019...... or in other words “ next bloody year”.
I’d have told him to take a 10 feet walk off a 6 foot pier if they weren’t so good a paint shop. Got a 10% discount for my inconvenience but I guess your prophecy was correct.....
Will be a nice New Years gift......

I´d subscribe to Your experiences with body shops.
There's a saying over here, that these guys are all odd, because they inhale all these unhealthy thinner fumes for extended periods ...

Hope Your precious is finally going to be a gem!
Good luck!
