That Nasty Window Trim...
#51
the main problem is not the rust, then the stone hard rubber baked on the side of the trim. :/

Tickled am I to see seven year old musings resurrected but also sad as I have no further info for you.
My search ended when I scored the Acura pieces.
It's hard to even make a specific recommendation due to the vagaries of junkyarding.
When I was searching the choices were limited to what I found that particular day, who knows what might be found now.
If you decide to try a junkyard (do they exist in Hungary?) I can offer a timesaving hint though.
Don't even look at anything that's not a 4 seat two door.
The FC has a very long door and the trim piece is correspondingly long; far longer than any to be found on shorter doors.
Also, the trim is basically straight but most cars have a curve/arc at the window base, so you can spot a likely donor from quite a distance.

Yep there are junkyards in hungary too, just not even close the american scale, and variety. I've asked almost all of the main honda(acura) junkyards, none of them EVER had 2.gen 2 door integra :/ which is sad.
Guess I have to keep searching. In case I find something useful, willm post it here.
