new trim panel and swaybar end bushings
Bill: It'* been tested up to 70mph now. Yes, Moog bushings.
Echo: I used the old bushing bolt as a template, I just tightened the nut down where it was the same length down the bolt as the old one. I dunno, doesn't seem like it messed anything up, drives like it'* new now.
tripscarcare: Someone hit it with a shopping car right after I got it.
Jim: Yes, my camber is off. I need to have my front end aligned and new tires all the way around.

That stupid trim came off again. I can't get it to snap onto the top of the clips. At least I found it this time and it didn't fly off going down the road. I have to do some body work on the quarter panel, and then I'll but the trim back on and silicone the h*ll out of the back of it.

If so, I have the same problem and havent been able to source the clips yet, only checked 4 GM dealers and a few body shops in the last year so I havent looked REALLY hard.

Bill, I had it glued on, the day I glued it, I tried prying it with my fingers, and it would budge. I walked out Saturday afternoon, and it was just hanging on by the bottom of the clips.
No trim is better then a car with funny colors IMO.
Sand it down, take it to a dealer and get it painted. It'll probably run you $30-40 or so, and be done in a day. Then when you have it secured the right way, you wont have to mess with it ever again.

Overtightening of the swaybar endlinks will cause increased wear rates.
Hook the trim on the top of the clips and push down to hook it on the bottom side. You might not be getting the top clips far enough into the trim peice. I believe there is a pretty deep slot for them to slid into.
