Body Side Molding ?

I posted this over in the body section and got nothing. Figured it might be more suited here.

I am restoring a 87 IROC-Z and need to replace the body side moldings. I know I can locate the 88-92 style relatively easy but am looking to source the correct style for the 87. Does anyone have a source?

Thanks in advance

Tom

I've recently seen some on eBay. They haven't been cheap though. Other than that, I haven't seen any.

Thanks for the info Scott. I am more concerned with being correct than price so I will keep my eye out.

Thanks again Scott. I was hoping to find them in white but maybe I should just grab these and paint them?

I'll keep my eyes open. I saw white ones a few weeks back. You might want to reach out to these sellers and see if they have white ones.

Re: Body Side Molding ?

Can you not just repaint body side molding? Was going to just repaint mine on my Camaro when I paint my ground effects, looks like the clearcoat on mine has failed.

I got good results from wetsanding and buffing the BSM on my T/A, but the finish on the BSM on my Camaro is in far worse condition.

I tried to contact these sellers but it states that due to the volume of emails they get they are not able to send them. I will just keep my eye out I guess and jump on a white one if I can actually see a picture of it.
