Purchasing advice
 
Hello all. I am going to purchase a complete set of exterior trim and a windshield cowl of someone. they want me to make my offer. I dont really know what is reasonable to offer though. I tried searching for other ones for sale but couldnt find anything. anyone have any suggestions of how much i should offer for both? he says they are in mint condition

im pretty sure the trim is worth an arm and a leg. I shaved all the seams in my car because i bought it without the trim, but i think there is also special clips that you need if they arent already on the trim. im not 100% sure tho, but someone will chime in with the proper answers for ya.

For the complete set of trim, are you talking about the windshield, hatch glass, side glass, and body trim? Just trying to make sure of what they consider a "complete set".

i think just the body trim. i think they mentioned 11 pieces or something.

'Fraid I won't be much help on that, as I have zero experience in what the body trim is worth.

Kevin 05-02-2009 02:13 AM

darn thanks anyway. Do you know anything about a windshield cowl?

Did some quick checking for you. The body mouldings/trim are about $40 per piece new. The cowl, new from a dealer, is about $190. Don't know what to suggest you offer the seller for used pieces, but new you're looking at about $600.

Check on Ebay and see what the various pieces of trim are going for there before making an offer. Just a suggestion.

ouch thats pricey. Thanks for your help. and thanks for not just telling me to "search"

No prob. I've learned a lot from this and some other Supra boards, and I try to help out when I can and when it's something I have some knowledge of.
