where to get side trim and emblems
- Thread starter racerkvn

Dang...is it so easy to find I'm asking a tard question, OR does nobody offer them? I can't seem to find exactly what I'm looking for, I want the body to appear as it just rolled off the show room floor, except the hood, wheels/tires and stance. The stick on trim/molding down the side will dictate the color I paint the car, so I'd like to find out what colors I can get it in.

If nothing there is acceptable just keep "googling".
Don't know any place for stone cold original or exactly what your moldings look like as they vary greatly.
Don't take the lack of response personal. My guess is no response means no one knows.
Seek and Ye might find.
If you do find something that works, post it here.
If you insist on totally original...place an ad on/in Hemmings Motor News.
If it's out there, someone there will have it

Thanks Buck! I did some searches and came up clean....or I found about what you posted, but it's not what I'm looking for. Figured somebody on MalibuRacing would have a line on the real deal stuff. I know most people rip this stuff off the car and never replace it, but for the look I'm after I'd rather have it. The picture below shows the molding I'm looking for.
Check with some of your local mobil auto detailers.
I knew a guy (in the late 90's) that did used car lot and new car dealer touch up /wax / and he had a rivet on molding with different color inserts. He replaced the gold stuff falling off my 80 malibu wagon and you could not tell it from the original. New dealers quit that stuff because of rust through warranties but I bet the product is still out there somewhere.
Now you could use 3M tape on the back of it instead of rivets.
