Thanks, Morgan

Where r u located ???

I think i have one


grumble - June 26th, 2014 at 07:16 PM

If Dave hasn't I am pretty sure that I have a set but go with him first.


GKW-405 - June 27th, 2014 at 06:48 AM

Awesome Dave, thanks. I'm in Sydney.


GKW-405 - June 27th, 2014 at 06:53 AM

Grumble hi, do you have a set for the whole car? Mine have been accidentally lost when the glass was removed. Looks like we can get fixed sides and tailgate from wrecks we know of, but if a set is available it might save us some time?
Otherwise I will just get the front from Dave...

Thanks for your advice. :tu:


vw54 - June 27th, 2014 at 08:04 AM

I have a pair of side windows with rubbers and trims and a pair door wind up windows for a squareback and a fastback,I had a pair of complete tailgates,doors and front guards but gave them away to one of my customers with a type 3 wagon.


GKW-405 - June 28th, 2014 at 05:22 PM

Thanks Grumble, the fixed side glass with rubbers and trims would be awesome. Can I contact you directly offline to organise? My email is mingmire@me.com


vlad01 - June 28th, 2014 at 09:37 PM

if you cann't get a good used set, ISP have the proper aluminum trims as new items, not the mylar plastic crap.

cheers


GKW-405 - June 29th, 2014 at 09:02 AM

Thanks Vlad01

Has anyone used/seen the ISP ones? I'm scared of the cost of shipping a large, fragile box out from US unless they are really worth it.


vw54 - June 29th, 2014 at 04:19 PM

I don't have the front screen trims

I have drivers rear window

2 front side windows

2 sill stainless trims

2 rear guards trims

3 front guard trims

Let me know if that's any good to you


GKW-405 - July 4th, 2014 at 06:03 PM

Thanks Dave, I have my hands on everything except a front trim. I'll keep looking. Many thanks for checking your stock.


Old Dubber - July 4th, 2014 at 06:39 PM

I have the front trim - you going to Valla?


GKW-405 - July 6th, 2014 at 02:29 PM

Not going to Valla, but could we possibly send it.

Probably not feasible, much too big and fragile


meisterberginteriors - July 7th, 2014 at 10:05 AM

its very feasible! use the courier company smartsend they shop around for the cheapest price for you. then use masking tape to stick the trim down to a thick piece of cardboard, cover it in some bubble wrap more cardboard and send it on its way :)
this is how they come from isp and they make it undamaged from the states like this.


Old Dubber - July 7th, 2014 at 07:03 PM

Am still waiting for a reply from Morgan, and it's his call.....


GKW-405 - July 9th, 2014 at 06:38 AM

Grahame here is my email mingmire@me.com. Let's chat off the forum and see what we can organise. Thanks.

GKW-405 - July 10th, 2014 at 04:43 PM

meisterberginteriors - July 10th, 2014 at 05:01 PM
