He got them new as stated some where in his thread LOL and he got them from toyota. They aren't cheap, but i do not have an exact pricing either.
Good work man. I like how everything has come out so far. Can't wait to see any other updates you may have.
^^ To be correct, those are my original trim pieces, just put some rubbing compound on them and they shined back up, never decided to get new ones, they were expensive for each piece!! but the weatherstripping and gaskets are new just waitin on a few more things from the mail, and today i got my NEW TOYOTA tail light gaskets installed

dang you are lucky, all my window trim are so sun worn that they cracked and the black started to chip off.
btw, i didnt mention this before, but...........
Your car is beautiful:love:
i got a few replacement trims from the junkie which were still in good shape without any "spider cracks" like mine did, so i replaced them and got rubbing compound and they shined up, and thank you, im still working to restore my car though

no lol looks like those headlights are trying to be E-Code and DOT at the same time um ever thought about getting a set of Hellas or Cibies
lol well those are gonna be my temp lights until i can get better ones, they are a lot brighter than OEM sealed beams for sure though!
no i got them from amazon, i wanted to try them out so yeah, they are pretty cheap, im gonna see how good they are and how they last, here they are...
