You should be able to get cut to length chrome side strip from auto trim/accessories shops, if thats what you mean?
Cheers fellas. Yeah I'm defs gonna paint the sill black. I'm also thinking about making another chrome trim piece to replace the one that's missing on that side.

^ I need to do that too but I was referring to the sill on the driver's side. There's supposed to be a large chrome strip that runs the length of the sill but it's missing from the driver's side. If you compare the pics from the previous page you'll see what I mean. I was going to just spray it black and be done with it, but it kinda bothers me there's a piece missing so I want to do something about it. (probs cut a long, wide strip of metal and shape/polish it up.)
Ahhhhh Yep didn't notice before.Yeah bloody annoying, will be pain the arse to get one ex Japan too, would have to be container freighted. Hmmm what about NZ, they were a domestic model over there I believe.
You could weld them up, or just even hit them in a bit and bog them.
I've thought about that too Marv but I prefer the look of the chrome / polished trims though. That red one looks pretty gnarley.
I think they were a domestic model in NZ Mark, that's where I sourced my replacement windscreen from 'cos there were none in Aus. 'Twas the biggest headache. I really cbf organising container freighting 'cos I don't know anyone / companies that can do it. At the end of the day it's just a long, flat, polished piece of metal so it shouldn't be hard to make something up on the cheap. hehe. I'll see how I go, if not, smoothed / painted sills it is.
Boredom got the better of me at work today so I squished my car. lol.
a+
nice work Hao! shouldn't be too hard to get a polished strip for cheap. i found a cressy at Wakol wreckers with bottom chrome strips still on it but not sure if they'll fit ok???
Caught a glimpse of this today.....looks so hawt Hao!
Cheeers man.
