Hi all, not sure if this is a common trait or just mine but the chrome strip that runs along the door window does not line up with the fixed trim on the rear window when shut, the door itself lines up fine. Thinking maybe a bit of trim will sort this, looking forward to your replies and advice smile

Mine is similar and does annoy me slightly, as the door itself lines up perfectly. I've never tried to fix and would also like to know if anything can be done to align correctly.

Has the NON retractable clip inside the trim itself failed perhaps which is allowing the trim to sit proud and out of line??

Will the trim push down slightly in to line if pressed or is there no give in it??

If no to above is it not slightly possible that the door hinge maybe very slightly worn allowing the visual difference to show even though it looks and closes ok.

Just a couple of thoughts.

Mine is similar, on both sides of my 2005 DB9 Volante but not quite as pronounced as yours.
