79 300D. The left (driver side)
front fender molding popped up at the
front tip. The 'rivet' seems broken
at the fender side, the shaft
goes through the fender but nothing
to hold it tight.
Can this be corrected or does it
need a new molding altogether?
Any clever solutions out there?
Thanks

I think he is referring to the long thin molding that runs along the whole side of the car. I think that if this is the case, he can just get new clips.

Thanks Larry, yes, the thin
molding that runs the length
of the sides.
The rivets didn't look replaceable
but if ya say so...
college try!

Mine popped out and I put epoxy on what was left of the plastic rivet, shoved it back in and it holds for about a year. Been doing this for 2 - 3 years.
