Protective Molding for Front Facia

[SYNFULL]

Hey,
I am trying to fing this black edge molding that is steel reinforced. Roe sells it with his front facia bumper kit (even though it's not listed as part of the package). it works pretty good at protecting the lower edge from scrapes but i can't find it anywhere.

Thanks
Gary

Tony,
I found that site but I don't think it's the same as this. You can see where the metal is coming through from scraping.
Thanks
Gary

That's just plin ol' interior edging from older cars. Look in yer road runner, just inside the door latch getting into the back seat........

JC Whitney has a warehouse full of that stuff............... or, you could pay more and get it from Year One.

Hey Synful,

I just ordered the trim from Mcmaster-Carr www.mcmaster.com

I ordered this part number 24175k45

It is practically the same as the one I had from Roe. (I tried to find it on Roe's site...but couldn't find it. So after some searching found it on Mcmaster)


I will likely order this part number next time 24175K44 as it is a bit more narrow. (3/16 vs 1/4)

The 1/4" one that I just got works fine but does not seem to be as tight as the old one I had.

Good luck!
Lance
