Can you give me your email? It wont let me upload the picture- it says the attachment is too big- but It is only one picture. I dont know if I am doing something wrong?

The image file is probably too large. Some cameras have the image size set for really large megapixels and are simply more that this site can handle. You can reduce the pixel size in your camera and take another pic, or download the pic you already shot to your PC/laptop, etc. and reduce the image there, and try posting it again.

This is what he is looking for. Not a factory trim item.

euro911
ooooh ... that's gonna be a tough one to find.

sad.gif I know it, that shows how much I know about my 914- as I assumed it was part of the appearance package. i don't know what to do about it? I guess someone may have a parts car with that molding. Thanks guys- Gerold, Mark! I appreciate your help with this

It is from the exterior molding that is on the fender. My car has 6 pieces of molding that runs from the front to back, midway up with rubber pieces inside chrome molding. 1 on eache qurter panel and 1 on each door. The piece you see in the picture is an end piece that fits into the chrome channel from my front quarter panel

Now I see said the blind man. Those terrible side strips that were riveted on. Someone can probably find them on a parts car for you.

yes- or I thoght maybe a 3D printer could make one? I know that the car came from Texas and had dealer installed A/C and I talked to the second owner and he stated that the car had the exterior molding n when he bought it from the original owner. I guess thats whay I thought they were factory. Oh well

They were probably available from aftermarket places like J.C. Whitney or Pep Boys back in the day. You might try visiting some bone yards to see if any other 70s/80s car might have the molding confused24.gif

Good luck.

Being dealer or aftermarket, there should be a source. I do know many removed them. I sure did. Sorry didn't save it.

Also, just a heads up, pretty sure it's not oficially part of the AP group of parts.
