Replacement / Repop Colored Body Side Molding

Last summer I removed the original opal gray body side molding on my truck, since it was is bad shape. I kinda like the look better with it removed, but I have some spots where the paint is faded differently and in certain lighting is just looks off. I am thinking about putting it back on. I can only find it in black as far as replacement sets go. That wouldn't look so great on my paint scheme. Has anyone seen anything besides black available short of the super expensive NOS stuff that you may never even find all the sections for?

I haven't seen aftermarket replacements in any other color than black. I know this doesn't answer your question but you could color sand and buff your truck to help blend it together. But overall its hard to make old paint look like new paint. Just a thought, good luck with your search.

I haven't tried to buff it out yet. Maybe it will look better afterwards. It isn't very noticeable and actually is mostly just a little on the passenger door more than anywhere else.
