Body Side Moldings?

Anyone have a lead on a decent looking body side molding for Nightfall Gray Metallic? I just picked up a low mileage 2017 2 SS and want to protect it but not ruin the looks. Thanks for any advice......

Side molding... You mean side skirt?

I have not seen any pics that have a body side moulding. The best case is to find a style that you don't notice at all. There are not any Camaro specific products, as far as I know. So you would have to try out a universal kit in black.
Or!

Literally just googled nightfall gray body die molding. Which Im sure you did already

That strip doesn't look like it would protect the side of the car. I wish they had a picture looking down the side of the car so you could see how much it sticks out from the side.

Please.
No.
Just no.
Learn to park WAY away from anyone. The furthest spot in the parking lot.

Take up two spaces, just don't put those ugly ass molding on a beautiful car.

No moldings for me

Thanks for the feedback. I decided not to do the moldings as nothing would look good.

Val is right do not ruin the sides of this car. Park away and get your exercise to where ever your going. NONONONONONO

Fully disagree with this... It's a great way to get your car keyed by people that take issue with those that purposely take up two spots.

Either don't park it in busy lots (drive a different vehicle when you have to go to the Walmarts) or park in an area that's away from where most customers will park. If you can identify the employee parking area, this may be a reasonable spot.

I look for my patented OAP spot (that's One A-hole Parking) when I'm looking to keep my vehicle from being damaged. Find a spot where literally only one other car can park next to or near you (curb on one side and in front/behind, for example).
