I keep mine in our kitchen draw for safe keeping. It's not new but still has the wood effect :-)

The wood grain ones are the same as some Spitfire ones. Not that easy to find though, I wanted one for JWC!

Yes please :mr green:

Out of interest, what is the arrangement around the rear windows (i.e. the side windows in the rear quarters) on yours? I assume the stainless was there from the factory. Not sure what I should do for mine there. The seals are very dead so open to options...

Cheeky I know, but would you be prepared to sell the ones from the front windows too?

I don't know about the door pillar sections- saloon TC owners, what's the verdict?

I suspect the correct answer is "no", but it'd be nice to have them anyway 8-)

Let us know when you've had a think on a price. Racking my brains for any other non essential estate bits you might have on there too... ;)

'Correct' answer is no but then again a TC estate isn't 'correct' so why not? :-D 8-)

The more shiny bits the better :razz:

That was my train of thought too Josh. Bling, innit!

You could probably use stick on for that bit as it is straight and easy and would look OK :thumbup:

Providing I can find some the right profile that could work- that said, front doors are much less of a problem anyway, I'm sure I'll be able to find the proper missing bits from somewhere :wink:
