You use the stock glass the way Vince is talking about doing it. Mostly likely I won't as it still takes time to do it and I have an idea on what I'm doing with the trim and bumpers on the car so I really want to keep the trim so not this time :D

its cool, trim looks good too. When you paint it body color. :hapdance:

Yeah or if you do a brushed look to all the trim :relax:

it looks really good to flush mount, but as a glass guy, do you add the channel/metal towards the edge of the glass or do you add the channel under the glass ? in other words, do you raise it to be flush? if you did i would thind the gap would be too much, so you add the metal to make the opening smaller?

yes, just move the channel closer. Then you add metal raise the base. We shoot for 1/4" edge gap and 3/8"base gap for the urethane.

or build up with urethane and run a rubber trim. Which would be totally reversable.

I am certain he will let you use it. However I think his car will be back from BBT soon and I think his car will be going on it.
