Blazer Jimmy Rear window trim painting
I searched, and came up empty handed. If my trim around the rear windows is pitted, am I screwed? Or can it be filled and sanded? Please say its salvageable.

Re: Blazer Jimmy Rear window trim painting
I'm not too sure either. Mine is terrible! I'd also like to know if that plastic trim can be filled and sanded. It's has a weird texture to it.

Re: Blazer Jimmy Rear window trim painting
Yeah but mine are pitted super bad. I don't even think it would be worth trying to fill.
  The thinner sides look worse! |

Re: Blazer Jimmy Rear window trim painting
I've had mine painted for a while now, no chipping yet. Just bodywork and paint like anything else.

Re: Blazer Jimmy Rear window trim painting
Mine looked much worse after being in Vegas for a year. i went to a paint shop and they sanded it and painted it. Looks good and no more eye sore.
Improving the looks of your car is always worth it!  |
