The offside rear door cladding has come adrift from the door, and whenever the front rear is opens a collision of plastic occurs!
Luckily there is YouTube video showing how to remove the trim and re-fit. Very useful.
I needed to purchase a rubber wheel specifically for removing the remnants of the very strong self-adhesive foam tape.
New lower clips were fitted (the originals broke) along with new automotive grade self-adhesive foam tape.
Presses into place and held for a short time with clamps. All complete and has stayed in place since.
Note there is no corrosion whatsoever.

The Oregon pine cladding made from the old washback at Glenrothes distillery, needs preserving before fitting. Anybody handy with a paintbrush?
The Delphi Hotel[2] is a 12-story hotel located at 550 S Flower St in Downtown Los Angeles in the marble-clad high-rise Superior Oil Company Building formerly the headquarters of the now defunct company, converted to The Standard Downtown LA hotel in 2002, then closed in 2020 and reopened in 2023 under its current name.[3]. The marble-clad Superior Oil Company Building was constructed from 1955–1956[4] as an office building by the Keck family[5] to serve as the headquarters for the Superior Oil Company.[6] Designed by Claud Beelman in the Late Moderne style, the 12-story structure was built by The William Simpson Construction Company.[7] The tower's design has been described as showing "how the oft-overlooked Beelman advanced the type and style of mid-century office buildings."[8] It was given distinctive marble, granite, and stainless-steel surfaces.[5] The building's design featured motifs particular to Superior Oil, including stylized "S" door pulls for the entrances and a bas-relief-style metal sculpture of an oilfield and refinery landscape above the Flower Street entrance interior. According to the Los Angeles Times, it became "one of the area's most significant examples of the postwar modernism style popular in corporate architecture during the 1950s."[5]
The LA Conservancy calls the building "one of the finest examples of the Corporate Moderne style in Los Angeles and stands out as one of the strongest designs of architect Claud Beelman’s later career."[7] The architecture represents a "simplified, abstracted redefinition" of Beelman's earlier explorations in the Late Moderne styles, also incorporating Modernist principles to "create a refined new corporate idiom." The building uses steel framing and a "pier and spandrel system" similar to those pioneered by Louis Sullivan. In a twist, however, the piers are clad in white marble and the recessed spandrels are ribbed stainless steel between window spaces, emphasizing the vertical nature of the architecture.[7]
In 1963, the building became the southern California headquarters of the Bank of California,[9] and for a time the building was called the Bank of California Building.[2] The building was vacated in 1992, after the Bank of California was merged into Union Bank of California.[5]. By 2000, local preservation groups were expressing worries that the vacant structure would be gutted and used as a telecommunications switching station, like other office buildings in the area. In January 2000, it was reported that the Union Bank of California had sold the building to William Gustafson and Mark Neumann's Columbia Development, "a Manhattan Beach-based hotel investment and development firm," for an undisclosed sum. With backing from local preservation groups, it was to be the "central city's first major new hotel in nearly a decade."[5]
Columbia Development Group, in partnership with Bear Stearns, JPMorgan Partners and Standard Holdings, converted the office building into a hotel operated by The Standard Hotels chain, run by Andre Balazs, which had opened its first boutique hotel in Hollywood in 1999.[4] The conversion was designed by Koning Eizenberg Architecture, Inc.[7][8] [4] and was constructed by Sam Martel of Taisei Construction. Christy McAvoy of Historical Resources Group was the historic preservation consultant.
The Standard Downtown LA opened in May 2002[10] as a 207-room boutique hotel,[11][6] with a rooftop pool and bar[8] with space for DJs[11] and pool parties,[11] a beer garden,[6][11] a ping pong club, a 24-hour coffee shop[6] and a lobby lounge. In 2011, Los Angeles Weekly included the building's rooftop restaurant as number 5 on its "Top 10 Restaurants in Buildings Designed by Significant Los Angeles Architects" list.[8] The pool on the roof has three "water-bed cabanas housed in plastic pods that resemble something out of a 1960s sci-fi movie."[12]
In 2003, the building was added to the National Register of Historic Places based on its architecture, particularly its moderne style and engineering.[2] Also in 2003, The Standard Hotel Downtown was awarded the Los Angeles Conservancy's preservation award, for "bringing a youthful buzz to a 1955 modernist skyscraper on Flower Street downtown."[13]
In 2009, the operator of the Standard Hotel was charged with dumping pool chemicals into the street below in a violation of federal environmental laws.[14] Standard Hotel pled guilty for the incident in 2010.[15] A shooting resulted in a death outside the hotel lobby in 2015.[16][17] In 2016, an injured bystander to the shootout sued the hotel, alleging insufficient security.[18] In May 2017, the food festival Smorgasburg LA debuted a popup residency at the Standard Hotel.[19][20]
The hotel closed temporarily in early 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In December 2021, it was announced that the closure would be permanent as of January 22, 2022.[21]. The hotel reopened on April 1, 2023[22] as the Delphi Hotel.[23]. The building entrance and exterior served as the fictional Brent Building in the television series Perry Mason (1957–1966) in which Mason's office[9] was located in Suite 904.
In the 1987 film RoboCop the building can be seen in the 6000 SUX car commercial.[citation needed]
Significant portions of the 2005 film Kiss Kiss Bang Bang were filmed outside the hotel and in the hotel's lobby, guest rooms, coffee shop, and rooftop bar/pool.[24]
The building was featured in the 2010 film Get Him to the Greek.
In the 2015 film San Andreas, the building collapsed during an earthquake.[citation needed]
The building was featured in the 2018 film Under the Silver Lake.

Iniwood Cladding
Developed in response to the growing popularity of mixed material building designs, Oakio Composite Cladding provides a warming design element to balance cold materials like metal and concrete.
Iniwood wall cladding is the ultimate solution for exterior. We capture the beauty and warmth of natural hardwoods, complete with subtle streaking, varied grain patterns and rich color palettes. Iniwood cladding doesn’t fade or degrade like wood, so the inspired aesthetic you envisioned will endure year after year.
Proshield Cladding
The beauty of wood meets composite technology. Oakio Proshield wood plastic composite cladding combines the beauty and warmth of wood with the durability of low-maintenance, high-performance composite materials.
Proshield composite cladding systems are an effective, eco-friendly way to manage moisture in the building envelope. A key element is durable cladding that deflects water and adds aesthetic appeal. Oakio Proshield composite cladding is the answer.
The cap is actually the same material of golf ball, the core is Iniwood materials. That is why Proshield is the second generation of Iniwood. More of the co extrusion decking in the market is made by PE for the cap only, which is not as stable as the Proshield cap.
