Plastic molding clips
« on: February 14, 2009 - 12:25:20 PM »
My Year One catalogue hasn't got here yet. I think they're sending it by foot.   Anyway, my 'Cuda is almost ready for media blasting and I need to know if you can buy new plastic clips that hold the molding on the top of the doors.  The old ones will obviously break if I remove them, but I'd prefer to take them out for a better job of media blasting, primer, paint etc as long as I can find replacements.  I haven't seen the clips on E-Bay or anywhere else so I just need to be reassured they are replaceable.  Thanks

"usraptr" = United States raptor - bird of prey = United States Bald Eagle.  FYI, somebody else thought of it first so I had to drop the "O" in raptor.
