As much as I hate to admit it, I pulled a real bone-head move this past Saturday.

Joe..
very sorry to hear about the mishap. there are really only 3 choices for the moldings; -new aftermarket -NOS [good luck] -used OEM parts I have a few odd pieces of used rocker moldings...they aren't show quality but maybe they will help...let me know exactly what pieces you need and I'll check the parts bin. -wilma

Pretty close, but I think it could have been much worse!! My "back-side" is still hurting from me kicking it!!!

The driver's/"good" side........ ![]() As you can see they aren't close to show quality!! Maybe not even driver quality, but they are original!! ![]() The passenger/bad side...... ![]() I think the exaggerated gap between the molding and bottom of the fender is because it was bent out pretty far?? ![]() By the way, anyone know how to get these off without hurting them even more?? I might just use a body shop close to me to do the work. And if anyone knows of anyone who might have these NOS/OEM please let me know!! I'll put the word out with the Nova "community" too. Thanks so much guys!! My "back-side" is already starting to feel better!!

Joe...there should be screws along the bottom edge and snap in clip at the top...I'll double check today at the shop and see what moldings I have.

I go to Spring Carlisle PA swap meet every year and normally see a set of NOS lower moldings.
They normally go for around $600 a set. I had one nos one, but could never find the other side as a single NOS for sale. I ended up selling my one NOS on Ebay last year and bought the repos. I normally hate repos, but after I bought them, I compared them to my NOS and I was actually very impressed. They really are very very close to the NOS... |
