Sorry you're not.happy with.the forum Phil. 

Any luck Phill, did you try asking the questions here with current owners? Even though there is no existing thread regarding your topics of inquiry there may well be Folk on here with relevant  experience. Most Forum threads are started by a question.  

Below is a link to a thread you probably have found of a site I have found useful previously. Good luck with your search.

Hi phil 

Is your trim silver or same as the car  ?

As far as i know the trim is painted plastic. So either needs to re sprayed or wrapped . Its held by 2 screws and it clipps off sliding to the back .

Hi Envy

Great suggestion, I've used tyrereviews.co.uk for most cars i've owned and had great experiences with Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymemetric 2 on a V70 d5 that I had a few years ago.

Hi Niedzial

The trim is brushed silver, it's had some surface scuffs and it looks like the previous owner tried to scour them out. I know a metalwork company that can do anodising but didn't know what other owners had done.

I'll start a thread to see what other options have been tried.

Cheers

Phill

Apologies for any confusion/offence, I used the wrong terminology, I meant a thread not a separate forum.

It been a few years since I've used forums, the response I received for both my queries was very helpful.
