All-Fit Automotive Replacement Body Side Molding 26 ft

This replacement body side molding restores the classic look while adding durable protection to late 80s and 90s GM trucks and SUVs. It suits vehicles such as Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon, Blazer, Jimmy and Suburban and helps keep door edges and panels safer from chips and minor dings. The molding is designed for a straightforward surface installation using 3M automotive tape and aims to match the old style OEM appearance.

Key Points

The molding comes as a continuous 26 foot roll of 2.5 inch width trim that allows cutting to exact lengths for doors, fenders and tailgate areas. It ships in black finish that replicates the original trim common on 1988 to 1999 models, so it blends with factory look while covering scuffs. Installation is intended to be user friendly, with adhesive backing already applied to simplify mounting on clean, dry sheetmetal. 🚗

This option is useful when a full OEM replacement part is not available or when restoring the exterior appearance without repainting. Consider that fit depends on careful measurement and trimming, and professional paint-matching is not part of this product.

Technical Specifications

Usage Recommendations

Prepare the vehicle surface before mounting by cleaning thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol and removing wax, oil and debris. For best adhesion apply at moderate temperatures and press firmly along the entire length to ensure contact. If replacing existing trim, remove old adhesive residue and any rust spots prior to installation to avoid compromised bond.

Allow 24 hours for the tape to set under normal conditions. For precise corners and bends, heat gently with a heat gun or hair dryer to improve flexibility, but avoid excessive heat that could deform the molding. When cutting lengths, use a fine-tooth saw or heavy-duty scissors and file any sharp edges to prevent paint damage.

Benefits

The molding offers protection against door dings and curb impacts while restoring a period-correct look. It reduces the need for frequent touch-ups by covering vulnerable panel edges and seams. For DIY enthusiasts this product delivers a practical balance between appearance and function, and the long roll makes it adaptable to multi-panel projects. ⚙️

Note that color may vary slightly from original factory trim and adhesive performance depends on surface preparation and ambient conditions, according to the manufacturer. 🔧
