cant find silver trim

hi again all
I have a clio 2 phase 1 like this 3 door http://images.clickedit.co.uk/333/2691820.jpg
Want to turn all that black trim silver. I cant find where you buy the door molding strips (think they called) the bits that go down the side of the car.
Also if anyone know where i can get silver door handles and a nice set of wing mirrors i would be very greatful.
I know its easy to stick in google or go to renualt, but i guess you lot know for quality stuff at a better price than renault. I like in the UK
Thanks for your time again Doj

You have to spray them ;)

If your not confident then take it to a bodyshop, i got quoted £200 to spray side strips, front and rear bumper inserts, spoiler and door handles on my old 1.2

Ok, thats cool, save me a bit of money. Need a bit of help getting the correct silver then please and what primer/undercoat should i use. I got a few scratches on the bumpers, little to deep to sand out or just leave. What can i use to fill those scratches. How many coats of under coat and top coat should i use, was thinking of about 3 of each.
Thanks for your time again Doj

Thanks, but i have the paint colour code (632) I just need to know what paint to buy, where to buy it and how many coats would be good.

probs be best to have them done properly dude,

the ones you will have will be textured, so they will never look as glossy as the body,

you could hunt scrapyards for some off a silver 172/182, but they wont be the exact same shade, but this will have the bullets.
