thanks
Another question if anyone can share their thoughts. I would like to paint the lower rubber cladding /seal on the bottom edge of the doors and fender body color, possibly also the door impact strips. Other than adding a flex agent to the paint, any concerx or negative experience that you'd like to share?

I like the look of the rocker cladding.. but I also like the older bumpers with the black rubber. Personally i think I looks better than having the whole lower painted a solid color. On my 95 the po painted the lower a satin black. Looks good on gloss black car.
As far as the mounting interchangeable.. I would imagine everything is the same. The w124 didn’t change too much over the years aside from the facelift and plastic body covers
