Door molding for Camaro???

I put my car in for paint&body work today, I forgot to ask him this till today so it was a little too late to do anything about. He said that if I got the door molding it would be black because that's all they can get. He can paint it the color of the car, but it tends to peel. I was like heck no, no black molding for me so I said no molding. Does anyone know where I can get molding like the original to put on my car that matches the color? Thanks, any help would be great. I want the molding, but I'll probably keep it without molding for awhile to see if it grows on me. I think I have enough money to get the molding even if it's a bit pricey...

If its painted properly (with flex agents), it shouldn't peel. There's really no other way to get an exact match to your paint, as selection of colors is pretty limited on most aftermarket molding even.

are you talking about the door ding strips? I have some on mine that were originaly red and quazar blue, i just roughed them up with scotch-brite, sprayed them with bulldog adhesion promoter then shot the paint and they look great

EDIT:
And yes, flex agent is a must.
