Post subject:  Window Frames and Lower Sills
Currently my window frames on the doors and the lowers sills are painted black.. when I respray I was thinking of doing both in body color (probably red again!) What do you guys think..
1. keep them both black
2. paint them both
3. paint sills body color , keep window frames black

The modern solution to a quandry like this is to get some photos and play about with photoshop to see what it would look like with all the options.

I had body colour sills and black window frames.

The black frames simulate the rubbers round the other windows.

Black frames only for me.

I have seen coupes with coloured frames but in my view they have never looked quite right, the black frames hide things such as the door rubbers and window channels well. These can look unsightly especially where they are not fitted very well.

I have looked at a lot of pictures, and I think I agree with colored sills, and black window frames.. I'll rock-guard the sills with paint-able rock-guard, then spray then the same as the car.. on to patching some sills.. the RH side has a few rusted areas to be fixed..
