So my trim looks bad. I have the great book on building pro-touring machines and it mentions flush mounting windows like the new cars. I am going to try it. I am looking for some trim to use currently, and I think I have a pretty good idea on what to do. The whole thing is from what I gather is, you raise the window by building up the surface it mounts to. Then, you use a flush trim the seal the deal. I am going to do a dry run using screws to mout thin metal on the surface. Then mock mount the window, and see how it goes. If it works, then I will weld the metal in place, and permanately mount the glass, then trim. If it doesnt work, I will purchase some fine quality enamel, and paint the trim to my liking!! So, if anybody has any ideas, or has ever thought about it, let me know. It seems to be just as scary to the hot rod guys as a tilt nose project. Not too scary is it? Once again, no guts, no glory!
