Corner protectors....over the T-molding, or......
« on: July 10, 2010, 09:51:28 am »
I got some corner protectors in from Twisted Quarter(great company) last night, and started to install them. Of course I realized that they would be covering some of the front edge, and here's where my question lies.

Do I lay the T-molding first, then sandwich the corner protector over it, or do I just end the t-molding at the top of the protector? I tried laying in some t-molding and then putting the the corner protector over it, and it didn't fit well. It looks much better with the corner protector flush to the cab, but I'm afraid that ending the T-molding at an abrupt cut might look weird....

They were on both neogeo cabs when I got them, they looked like triangles form the side. You can *KINDA* see them in some of the pix from the 4 slot resto linkin my siggie,  but  had a pretty crappy camera back then.

Well, I don't know if it's due to size of t-molding I have, or the wood, but they sit all wonky  :dizzy: when trying to install them over the t-molding....
