i went to the junkyard, pulled all the molding, and a new doorhandle, all was well.



well i get home, and an hour of pulling the door apart and trying to figure how to install the doorhandle ( new to that ), im about finished, bolting the last 3 screws back into the door stop, when i hear a clank, the door handle broke, right where the last one did.

then i had to go buy some poly eurathane to keep the molding on right, well that stuff exploded in my hands, now my hands are black until i get my hands on paint thinner, and on top of that, i got some on the roof by accident, and it didnt hold the molding on

and because of me throwing the door back together in a hurry, if i roll my window more then halfway down, it pops the door open



so tomorrow she goes to terry, my mechanic, im just going to throw money at it, im far too fustrated with it.

If it's the molding that follows the bumper line and goes all the way around the car, fenders, doors, etc. Go to an apholstery shop and get them to spray some industrial adheseve on there for you. That **** will never come off. Not even for the governor of california. Two part epoxy would work just the same, you can get that at a hardware store.

You would think someone somewhere would develop a handle made of something besides pot metal.



Good luck with it.

its bc you used the "propper" adhesive instead of the "proper" adhesive! i thought you just use that foamy double stick tape like stuff on molding and things of that sort?



p.s. matt im stealing your taillights.
