Another Marina Looking good! :D I look forward to seeing it complete.

I have to say Frank, you also have another great calender hanging up!! :wink:
Just popped windows out of mine, came out real good with some care.

BL were a bit nasty on the stainless steel door trim which sits on the top of door! :roll: They use an inaccessible PK screw which took some shifting! I am thinking of drilling a hole in the inner door panel to reassemble those so I can get a screw driver on straight! (As it has the vinyl door capping it will not notice!) :idea:
Got all the window stainless trimming off OK to. Used a hardwood block and gently worked along the trim from the inside edge of window. I was worried about kinking it so if you got any tips for putting it back on I am interested?

Best Regards,
Paul.

Hi Paul...that`s not a calendar, that`s Kylies bum!..life size!!,
The best way to put the stainless trims back on the door frames is to roll them over the top edge, and just snap them on, remember to do the upright ones first as the top frames go over the top edge of the uprights :wink: , when it comes to the lower ones along the top of the door skin i use a bead of sealer or silicone under them to stop them chafing on the new paint, and as for that screw...just leave it off, the trim wo`nt go anywhere as it is trapped under the rubber seal for the quarterlight. :) :wink:

I must say Jimbob, i am warming to those MK2 bumpers on a MK1, they look a lot better than i thought they would, and with MK1 bumpers changing hands for over £150 They make a very good alternative, and they are much more plentiful, i think Andy W. has got loads of them in stock :wink:
