i got my k24 running good and hauling ass for now. next up is to make it look better. all my stainless trim is in bad shape. any places to find new trim or delete them? junkyards dont have many coupes, and when you go to remove them, they get damaged. can you still get the trim clips from honda?

Which pieces do you need? Honda shows the clips as discontinued. If you're careful, some of the clips will come out intact.
Edit: Wow. I searched all sorts of clips suppliers - didn't find this one. Might have to have a trim removal party at your local U Pull. If you pry gently on the bottom of the chrome strip, it will pop off the clip. Then with a narrow blade, you can try to compress the barb on one side of the clip to remove it. Sounds like I should collect more of these when I have the chance. I recently removed the driver side trim from my 92 project car to replace the gasket on the clips thinking they were part of a water leakage problem.Last edited by Fleetw00d; 04-07-2019, 09:56 PM.90 LX 4dr 5 spd 396,014 (sold 1/1/2022) - MRT: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=201450

I have a couple clips and I got some from Paul and some from junkyard. I can take a look in my PAP. I know there is one coupe. Not sure on the condition of the trim.~Nick~

I found all the clips on Ebay as a kit cheap.

I had to replace a damaged door molding on my 5th Gen wagon, and it used the same clips as above. Found a cheap set of 20 or so on eBay, then went to the yard and pull the trim I needed. Didn't care about the clips since I had new ones ready to go.
This is one of the cases where going OEM isn't really worth it....$7ish per clip, or a 20 pack for $15 aftermarket. And its not like you're gonna remove that trim piece in the future....except maybe for paint.
