Well, I've had my rant, trying to make the best of a bad situation. Car runs great, has been abused to the point of neglect. But the process is slow and I'll get there, someday.

Stent him a direct message, no reply. Probably won't get one. Bitched at him for sending something out of the junk yard. I had to sand the hell out of it to get it ready to paint

Windshield molding

I guess I need some insight into windshield molding removals and replacement. I got a big crack in windshield and it looks like a major undertaking. Besides taking a try bar to it, what is the best way to take them off. I can not believe there is not a better way.

Anyone have problems ...
