Yeah, I did ask about the stuff and one of the painters did mention it's proper name - buggered if I can find it now.
Did find an old thread on the side moulds though - post1038118.html

EDIT: The name of that stuff is in the above thread.

today with the help of lukey1990 we got more stuff back on the XR6, we got the door handles and windows back in. while lukey1990 removed the rear right latch to straighten it i put the headlights in and bolted the bumper and grill on. i also started putting the side moulds on.

i located the bonnet bolts they were in the car :P i cant find the screws to put the pillar trims back on ill have to dig around inside the car tomorrow and also for some odd reason i cant find the other numberplate :oops: last time i saw it it was on the bench (other was in the boot) so im hoping dad didnt think it was trash and chucked it.
