Does anyone try and fix these attach points? I thought about using fiberglass to rebuild
The ends, at the front wheels, are the worst
Check Tooltopia. They have a Airless plastic welding machine that even has a video on how to do the repair, otherwise body shop should be able to help.

May I ask where you bought the stripes from?
Thanks.

Sucked it up and installed Hella smoked side markers today. $75 for the pair seems a little excessive but I guess its a $75 improvement in looks over the originals (especially on a grey car). Clear/smoked headlights Im restoring at the moment so still running the colored ones that came with the car till then...

One of the easiest yet most impactful upgrades imo. Nice!
