Default Need Help, Door Trim Window Replacement. 94 civic (pics)

I need some help with the door window trim on my 94 civic. I want to replace them since they are old, worn out, and chipped near the window. I cannot seem to find them anywhere or the proper name of the part. I am new to internet part browsing ( ebay/ amazon lol ) so if anyone knows where I can get a new pair of these it would be greatly appreciated.



Thanks


They are chipped all along the window part.

Or just do like Lizard said. Take them off, sand them down, and respray them. Alternatively, you could just spray them in some Plastidip.

you think it's fine? The driver side clips are broken, these are the fucked up chips I'm talking about. You can't really see them in the pic that well. But I guess I'll do as you guys suggested.

Yeah, it's just a trim piece. The only reason it's there is to look pretty. If you're really OCD about the chips, the only way to "fix" those is to replace them, but it's strictly cosmetic. Completely up to you how you want to do it.

Thanks, I guess this week I'll remove them and my windshield wipers and spray paint them black? Spray paint is ok?

As long as you do the prep work first, yeah. Sand them down bare, then spray them.

I'd still recommend Plastidip, though. Prep work goes from sanding and washing, down to just washing it. I've also found that Plastidip holds up better than rattle can paint for smaller things like that.

Alright, at my local pepboys auto store they have the spray on plastidip for 10$ a can. And should I do the same with the windshield wipers?
