Default Where to get body moldings in 2023?

Greetings all

I have a Sunset Orange 02 WS6, and the body moldings aren't in the greatest of shape. I've been trying to track some down, with no luck.

Anyone have any ideas on where you can actually get these here in 2023? Paint to match is fine, Sunset Orange would be fantastic (guy can dream, right?).

Thanks in advance

I was looking at those. I was worried about getting the shape of the ends right, since they aren't just diagonal cuts. I was really hoping for either OEM or precut & precolored pieces. I know they will be pricey, but the car is in really good shape, and I want to keep it as clean as possible.

If anyone has pics of the cut to length stuff installed, id love to see it.

Front Fender: 10426732

Door: 10426725

Rear Quarter: 10426723

Those are the part numbers for moldings in 71U, Sunset Orange Metallic. Not sure if you'll find any still out in the wild, but at least it will give you something to start from!

Try AZ Cycle Parts, they might have what you need but you’ll have to look through their eBay store.

No luck with AZ cycle.

I found the front fender pieces (10426732), but I've been looking for a few days for the rest of it with no luck. If anyone can help me out with locating the two remaining pieces (Door: 10426725 Rear Quarter: 10426723), not the generic cut / paint to match, I would be happy to Paypal $20 as a finder's fee.

Thanks!

Maybe try Hawks Motorsports? They might be able to pull a good set from a donor car.

Looked through Hawk's, didn't see them. I e-mailed them over the weekend about a lid, and never heard back. Thanks for the lead though!

Try giving them a call if you don't hear back. They've been able to get me odd-ball parts not on their website before.

Hawks was a no-go. Thanks for the idea though.

Any other ideas out there?
