Car Door Trim Moldings — Page 9

Car door moldings are trim strips that run along the doors. They protect the paint from minor bumps and scratches and change the look of the side profile. In this section you’ll find two types: vehicle-specific kits for a particular make and model (4, 6, or 8 pieces, sometimes together with fender trims) and universal Salman molding sold by the meter—chrome or black, 8.5 to 59 mm wide, sold in 1-meter increments.

Vehicle-specific or universal molding—what should you choose?

Vehicle-specific moldings follow the exact door contours of a particular vehicle, come as a full set for all doors, and look like an OEM part. Universal molding by the meter is a good choice when there’s no model-specific kit for your car, or when you want to trim a different area: a plastic edge, a grille, or a styling line on the body. Cut it to the length you need, and allow some extra for trimming.

Which models share the same moldings?

Some kits fit several twin models—this is easy to spot by the same part number in the catalog:

• Citroen Berlingo 2018+, Fiat Doblo III 2023+, Opel Combo 2019+, Peugeot Partner and Rifter 2019+, Toyota Proace City — door moldings in 2025+ design (4 pcs, ABS).
• Nissan Navara NP300 2016+ and Mercedes X-Class 2017–2020 — door molding (4 pcs, ABS).
• Mitsubishi L200 2015–2024 and Fiat Fullback 2016+ — EuroCap door molding (6 pcs, ABS).
• Dacia Duster and Renault Duster of the same production years — shared molding and fender trim kits.

How to choose moldings for your car

• Wheelbase and number of doors. For Ford Transit 2000–2014 there are separate kits for short wheelbase (6 pcs) and long wheelbase (8 pcs), while AMG moldings for Mercedes Sprinter W907 are intended only for the medium wheelbase.
• Year and design. For Dacia Duster 2018–2024 there are V1 and V2 versions; for Land Cruiser 200 there are kits in 2008–2016 and 2016–2021 designs—use the photos and the years in the title as your guide.
• Width and profile. Salman moldings by the meter come in 8.5, 13.5, 16.5, 19, 27, 32, 43, 44.5, 46.5, 49, 54, and 59 mm widths. Flat profiles stick to a flat surface, while U-shaped profiles clip over an edge.
• Mounting. The installation method is listed in the product specs; for parts installed with adhesive/sealant, the glue is usually purchased separately.

Collections: universal moldings, Salman moldings by the meter, EuroCap vehicle-specific moldings, and also for Toyota, Range Rover and Land Rover, Volkswagen, Dacia, and Mitsubishi.

What to pair moldings with

Moldings are often installed together with fender flares and fender trims and side steps. Chrome moldings are also grouped in the chrome moldings section, and for reliable bonding there’s 3M double-sided tape and primer.
