Fender Trim Question/Help
I have a 2010 2SS and when I bought it, it already had a trim on the fenders. To be honest I never really noticed it until a few months after I got it, anyway.. My problem is one of them cracked and I need to replace it.. but I have no idea where they're from .. I've scoured the internet with no luck yet.. I've found several others but they are not the same. The ones on mine are rubberish black material with a strip of chrome underneath.. If anyone knows where I can get these I'd appreciate it a lot! ..heres some pictures if that helps

I'd remove all of them at once.

Easiest/cheapest thing to do is remove it all, and then clean up the edges of the fenders.
It's probably a generic product that the dealer or last owner put on, maybe not worth replacing unless you're in love with the look? |

I have to agree, I don't like the looks of them at all. Maybe if they were all black, without the chrome accent, they might look ok. I have to wonder though, you said one was cracked. Cracked from age, or cracked from being hit by another car's door? I can see where they might add some protection against fender dents, and if that is the case, then replace the cracked one if you like that look. Otherwise, just remove them all. |

That is really odd that the trim was installed. I wonder who the previous owner was... LOL. It may be covering up some rock chips or something. Either way I would take it off. It just adds another place where dirt and grime may build up.
