No, the chrome sill trim clips are still available but slightly different.
The ‘Boomerang trim clips’ are like hens teeth.

Re: 3D printing and Scirocco parts?
Hi, this subject pricked my memory! 1lazza on here (Laurence) was the originator of this - rear quarter clips.
It might be worth contacting him? I did have the file but I can't find it...
I had a go at this sometime ago and the printed material at the time was to brittle to cope. Time and ...

Re: MK 1 Storm - The Money Pit
Holy thread resurrection - literally!
I kind of lost interest in this when photobucket got arsey... now it would appear you can view again?
