Rubber plastic moulding

[donwon]

Anyone know where I can get some moulding that looks like this?

What do you call this anyways? I googled for a long time and didnt find too much that was relevant. So far im am at extrusion H trim. I am putting on some skirts and there is a little gap between the skirt and the rocker panel where the above trim would would fill nicely. Any suggestions?

....there is a little gap between the skirt and the door panel where the above trim would would fill nicely. ...

You lost me here - between skirt & door panel? Did you mean rocker panel?

 

[donwon]

Yes, you are correct, I believe rocker panel would be more accurate.

Ah, OK.

How wide is your gap? I used some of the round rubber piping that is used to secure screen door mesh in the channel on my WW's; there wasn't so much a gap with the WW's more for a decorative finish. It comes in different diameters too.

Good stuff, but my gap is quite a bit larger than that. Hasnt been fitted completely on .. but I would guess about 1/2 inch -1 inch gap

Holy, moly! That's huge! What kind of skirts if I may ask?

If it's really that bad I would consider moulding some additional fiberglass on. (they are fiberglass I presume?)

Will one of the following work? Maybe #4?You might try searching on www.mcmaster.com to see if they might have something. That's where I got this picture from.

How about running an aluminum rail,like in my sideskirt package.I can make it whatever width you need.Once installed you can use a foam tape to hide the gap,just an idea,may or may not work for you.Otherwise it may need fiberglassing.In that picture the rail is made of 3/4X3/4 inch angle.You could make it out a wider material as well.

Thanks for the input guys! Good suggestions. Im gonna run it by the body shop and see what they think will work best.

Malibu after looking at it #12 looks like it may do the trick, since the skirt sits a bit lower to where it meets the door footing.

I cant quite picture stacys idea, im slow like that. :redface: it will hit me later
