The thin body side/door molding was missing from my car when I got it. Is this molding still available anywhere?

I tried them, all they have was the wide molding used on GT's & LX.

Although not the exact same profile when I was looking at another car missing the moldings my research came up with this as pretty good replacement and it's cheap.

Thanks,
This looks like the best replacement.

I couldn't really tell from the link how much of a match it was. I am also looking for the two trim pieces per the photos attached on my 86 SVO. I am missing the driver's side front piece (short piece between front wheel well and door) and the passenger side rear piece (between rear wheel well and door).
I tried calling R&E but they are closed. I don't need an exact match for the NOS that's on the car, but I'd like it to be passable from a few feet away. I am assuming it's just a set length that you need to purchase/then cut & paint? I don't see the length specified on the site - just $15.34. Are these actually cut to size?

The profile is different so you wouldn't want to mix and match. I believe the price is for a 20ft roll. Cut to fit and paint. Good option for someone missing all of the original.

It won't match your original stuff but it is a good replacement. I used that when i painted my 84 and no ever seems to notice.

Just sent you an email with basically the same info that is in here. Saw your post in a diff. forum. The link above is your best option.
