When talking about vintage Fiat 500s, every detail is important. In this case, we are talking about the chrome moldings under the doors.

They may seem like an insignificant detail, but they are actually a very elegant finishing touch that adds a little extra. Despite being a relatively simple installation, it is a delicate process.

First, we need to get the moldings, which can easily be found on websites like ricambidepoca, with the code tlc0318-b/603, priced at 20.00 euros + 8.00 euros for shipping. Then, we need to apply the clips into the appropriate holes, gently hammering them in all the way. Finally, we apply the molding and we're done!
