Re: Black vinyl window trim
I had this on my 2g and I had to go to the dealer. IIRC, they're actually not TOO expensive.

Re: Black vinyl window trim
I'm just going to strip mine and paint it. Seems a lot easier and better IMO.

Re: Black vinyl window trim
The metal underneath my upper window trim is starting to show as well, I've been meaning to take them off and repaint them, but I can't figure out how to take them off with out breaking them. I supose putting some news paper between the window to cover it and put some news paper under the top of the trim so the paint doesn't get on the roof or window should do the trick, but I don't know.
