What year mustang do you want to replace the molding on? If it's a '79-'84, you can't buy any molding yet. As far as I know, it's currently not being reproduced. Your best bet, if you need new, is to check E-Bay regularly to see if anyone has any NOS pieces.
You CAN restore it rather easily, if you have the time and the patience. I've done it myself, and it looks like it's factory fresh. Let me know if you need any information on how to do this yourself. BTW, I've contacted Skye about this and I need to get some pictures of it in step-by-step fashion so that she can add it to the boards.

I also would love to know how this is done. The ones on my pace car are peeling up also. This info would be great as I have been watching ebay for the side moldings nos and they are quite expensive.

;) Green Sales Company, Inc. of Ohio has a good selection of body side mouldings. I bought Pieces for my 79 Cobra that were new and in the original package. Get ready to spend some bucks. I found some mouldings in good shape on an 81 v6 @ the salvage yard and if you put them in the freezer for about 20 minutes, you can peel the metal strip off the back in no time. This is super quick and alot less painfull than heating them with a heat gun. www.GreenSalesCompany.com
