Default Car door moldings?

Has anyone noticed how easily a Prius door can get dinged because of the lack of door moldings? Does anyone know a good car door molding company? One that can match actual Toyota colors? Thanks much!

Try metrotpn.com. They have side door moldings that come in the same color as your Prius for $115.

John,

I put body side moldings on my 04 Prius the day I brought it home. My Prius is the sand beige color and I went with simple, wide black moldings. The installer came to my house and for less than $90 it was done in my driveway.

I think the car looks better with the moldings and I know they have saved me from many dings over the last two years.

I was goign to suggest Metro Toyota also. Sometimes the folks over at Priuschat have group buys and you can get a lower price because many folks are buying at once.

It has been said:
Hybrid drivers come in 3 flavors, greenie, techie and cheapie. Pick any 2.
