    Door trim plates

    guys I am wanting some trimplates that cover the door latch cutouts on the edge of the door.
    I have seen some on photos of other coupes. can anyone give me the name of the person that
    is making these.

    Thanks

    If you are referring to the ones on the door, they came with the car.

    them.

    Oh...

    They are pretty easy to make if you have a metal brake.
    Hopefully someone can offer up theirs if they aren't using them.

    I would also try Factory Five...I'm not sure how much they would charge you but you can ask. I would think the fit from gen I to Gen II should be unchanged.

    I talked to FFR this morning, and they told me they no longer make these trim plates. If any one has a set that they didn't use, I would like to buy them.

    Thanks

    Wow, I wonder why they stopped making them. They really finish up the door in my opinion. This sounds like a job for Russ Thompson.
