Lightbulb Tired window moldings

Depends on how far gone they are. If you've already sanded and painted them and they still look bad, you're probably screwed.

My body man told me that past a certain point the plastic is not repairable no matter what you do. He said he's tried and failed more than once (and he's a real pro) and has now given up on restoring Mustang window moldings.

He suggested buying new quarter windows (the moldings are attached to the windows as one piece) as the only real solution. He gave me a 'good guy price' of $325. per side. I passed.

There are covers you can buy and a few guys have reported cleaning and painting them successfully. It's a bit of a long shot but worth trying considering the obscene price for new windows and moldings when all you really need is the molding.

Good luck; let us know how this comes out for you.
