Did a search found no results.

A co-worker insists on me getting some black gloss finish body side molding to protect my car from needless bumps from asshats who can't park/open their doors correctly. I don't disagree that it would help protect the car, I just don't see how it could look good on the car. Maybe it would be more subtle than I imagine.

Has anyone on the forum actually put side molding on? Got pics?

I think ive seem some on trucks. They look like they go with the truck itself. Ive even seen some on some cars. But I mean, how many people "nick" your car to go pay several hundred for something that you really dont need. Save yourself some money and park futher away.

i agree with zach... i had the side molding on my car... they came with the car... i hated them... so i took them off... if you want i think i still got them if you send money for the shipping they're all yours bro... but their white so would have to paint them... but your car will look alot cleaner wit out them

I'm not a huge fan, but if someone has gotten a lot of door dings and knows that if there was a molding strip there wouldn't be any it would be a huge benefit.

I found a place that sells gloss black strips which would fit my car but I'm just not sold on it. Nor would I even know how low/high to put them on the vehicle.

well you can always have the dealer put it on for you...

My car came from the factory without them, and while I have a few dings, I'll never put them on. They only protect your car if the door hitting you is in the right place height-wise for the molding to be effective. My door's been dinged in places the molding would have had no chance in hell of stopping it.

You can get it from the dealer....most of us removed the side moldins and threw them away!
