Body side moldings ends

[Robroy]

I’m looking for the ends to the body side moldings (see the pict below), I’m lacking three of them .

The moldings on my car were installed by the dealership (Wallace Portland OR). I have no idea how unusual they may be…:confused:?

these aftermarket moldings came in dozens of styles and colors from dozens of manufacturers - I would think it will be next to impossible to find the piece you are looking for.

Per, you should check out whether the aftermarket moldings of the German retailer Döpper could help you:

... or in Swedish :

Search for "Zierleisten"(German) or "Profilerna"(Swedish).

They also have a shop in Sweden :

Top´p Trim Shop, Gerd Nilsson
S-25452 Helsingborg
Tel.: (0046-) 42200989
FAX : (0046-) 200959

If you will not find a part which could help you, you could think about replacing your mouldings with new ones of similar design.

Good luck, Per !

Since this is not an original side molding, and your missing 3 out of 4 you might want to look around at whatever ends you can find. If you find one you like that matches the width of the trim replace all 4.

If you have any friends who are into crafts there is a material that you can use to make plastic parts. It's like a clay that can be shaped and then baked into a hard plastic. Making something like this shouldn't be too hard. They might even be able to make a mold of the one you have.

Good luck,

John

Thanks for all the inputs guys,

I figured they would be pretty hard to find, especially being the aftermarket kind.

I also thought about somehow manufacture new ones that would look right as ends.
Rolf’s link looks promising; I will look closer to what they got to offer :xyxthumbs:
