I am replacing the trim below the door on dog panel, runs from front to rear wheel. About 5 feet long. I need rubber trim for the areas of the trim from door to tapered end on both ends. Looks like a thin rubber edge trim you press on.
Also need to find the rubber trim for the front stainless steel trim on bottom of upper grill in front. Again, looks like some kind of press on that fits the upper back edges. Actually I don't know how much trim it uses as I have not seen any photos showing it in place. On the bottom front of upper grill, the S/S piece runs along front, up the opening at an angle and the back and up at an angle to upper part of front grill. Well that's the only way I can describe them.
Any ideas where to find, buy,swap for them?

Midwest-Bayless has the side trim, but it will add up ($75) if you need all four pieces.

There's the grill trim. Potentially could be used for the sides as well.

Re: Looking for source for black rubber trim for chrome trim
Looks like regular door trim (in the above a/r short cut) that you use to keep from damaging the other car and your door edge when you open your door.
I took off bits and pieces that looked like they were special to the front grill piece. Also the dog panel trim on my passenger side is small and again, looks like it was made for that specific trim (long piece that goes on upper dog panel, under the bottom of the door). Only the piece in front of and back of door has this trim. Guess I could use the common door trim for my front grill area bottom trim but can't see it working for the dog panel trim. Neither of the above shortcuts show what I am looming for by the way.

Sorry, tourists. I forgot to say the link to M B had the molding I wanted for the side trim. Thanks.
Still looking for front grill surround piece trim. Might get away with door trim.

Much too thin and tight to fit over the edge of a door. What grill piece are you referring to?

The front upper grill opening surround. Fits bottom inside the opening, slightly curved to front and angles up both sides. I I think it just goes on front of the surround piece.
Texsardo Thanks

Re: Looking for source for black rubber trim for chrome trim
Sorry amawads, which trim are you talking about, the one from AR above or something else? The photo in AR doesn,t really give you an idea of it,s size. I have already used some red trim that slips on with a sticky bit in the channel, that edges my door back part. Matches color of my red body and covers all those dings PO made opening doors to wide into a wall or something. I thought of using some like it only in black. It is about a i/8" channel (1/8' on either side of door edge.
