The PO told me that the windshield trim kept blowing off so he left it off. I installed the chrome trim off of my parts car three years ago and have been on several high speed runs without problems.
Today the center clip blew off at 95MPH and almost immediately the right side trim blew off as well. Is there a way to attache the trim so that I can be sure that it will not come off again? Attached image(s)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) The door was fine but I was trying to keep up with the 911s and (944s with V8s) at the 1st Annual PCA Alabama Region Fall Festal. There were only two 914s and we both had four cylinder 2.0s but it was fun anyway. I received two more awards today, one for most road rash and one for longest restoration.
