Only a stupid offer would take this from me now......dont even think that wud take it from me.
I will speak to ma bro later and get him to ask his mrs bout re-trimming. I think she will do some for ya though if the price is right m8.

im either gonna snap it out, paint it black or maybe make a panel to slip in there to cover it,
if i did it again i would prob take the panel out before i put the roof liner in,
welcome to come take a look at it for ideas for yours though mate,
spoke to her about retrimming she is up for it but price needed etc obviously.
pm me if interested

When i trimmed my novas roof lining and door pillar covers i removed the plastic slider and sprayed them black. With the belts up at the top the sliders are hardly visable anyway.

UPDATE:
The softstars that I lent from a friend are now mine. Bought them on Mondat night. There about 4 months old with Khumo's all round. Will be changing tyres later on once car is finished.
Got round to fitting them yesterday, they go over the brakes without spacers aswell! result.
Also another gauge (Oil Pressure) has arrived from the USA!
No pictures as of yet as havent had chance in any day light due to work, will have some up over the weekend.

Great work mate,
Will you be running the car up the strip at PV? if so fancy a race  I think it could be quite equally matched.
