Door Sill Trim

[davids2toys]

To me, what looks like the door edge molding that you can buy at a local parts store is really looking bad,chrome peeling of, etc, etc... especially on the drivers side! Which is a good thing because it is protecting the paint on the door sill. I like the way it looks also, especially with the doors closed and you can just see the chrome edge, kind of a finishing off touch of the interior and a protector.
So my problem is replacing it, I finally got the widest I could find, it is made from Cowles corp. The stuff I got is call truck door edge guard, it is about 7/16 wide, which is about what was on there, but the part that goes around the fiberglass is driving me nuts, the opening is just to small , the fiberglass is just too thick in spots. The trim that was on there fit good, I just don't know what it is or where to get it! I did notice some pics in the Unique picture gallery, especially one pic that shows a door sill that to me looks like a plate attached to it that looks real nice! If anyone has more info they could share with me, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks...Dave

I purchased the polished aluminum door strips from a customer of Unique Motorcars. I cannot remember his name, met him at a Carlisle show. Call Maurice or Alan, they'll hook you up. I have them on both sides.

Thank you...Is your car the one in the picture in the link? Is the piece totally flat, or does in wrap down around the inside edge?
