i gots a problem, the weather or rubbering molding that goes around my rear valences to protect it front scratching my paint is falling off. i need to replace it, and i have no idea where to find them. i remember reading a post awhile back about the weather stripping, and where to find them, but i cant find that thread. help me outtttttttt!!!!

 

You mean the crap stripping on the rear fender wells?

If so just rip that chit off.

It promotes rust nicely if you don't live in Arizona.

 

no no, the rubber stripping that lines the oem rear valences

 

The OEM add on stuff?

If so, maybe you can get it from Honda directly, or possibly a body kit company like Wings West (are they even still in business?)

 

yea the oem add ons, i havent checked honda, but since the valences have been discontinued, i figured the wont have it

 

How about an Acura dealership since they used to sell them, or a good body shop, or again a body kit company like WW?

 

ww is really hard to get hardware etc. from after an initial order, even when you have ordered it from them.

edit: im sure 3m makes something like that, they have all kinds of automotive adhesives etc.

i am having the same problem trying to locate that stuff. Yesterday, I went to a local body shop and they said to try the Toyota dealership. He says they use something like that on the 4runner fender flares. If anyone has time to check this out, let me know if it's true. Part numbers also, please.

There is also a company called trim-lok that sells something very similar. It's under fender flares. But I don't want to buy a whole roll and am having trouble locating a distributor around my area.

 

Im imola-red-dc2 or something i think that's his name but he is the one that posted where to get it

 

actually i just searched for it i dont think it was him but it was someone else doing a rebuild on a jdm front integra in the appearance forum. I know the post was made here though i just cant find it

Sweet, u gonna charge me for shipping? how did u sweet talk the company?

 

FYI: you all suck for even having the part that needs this

 

haha yeah it's rather hard to get. my gf found them for me =P

 

Went to Toyota and ordered the replacement trim off of the rear lip on a corolla s. Hope it fits and looks nice.

 

Well, got my trim from Toyota. It fit beautifully. One piece was good enough for both sides. Almost the perfect length.
