Plastic trim pieces on roof right above door line

I'd search but I don't know what to call these things....they're narrow, body-colored plastic that goes from the front of the rool to the back, on each side of the roof. Mine have gotten mildewed somehow, and no matter what I do I cannot completely clean them. Anyone else have this problem? I think I should just order new ones, have them painted, and put 'em on..but I'm not sure what to order.

TIA,

jds

I have had mine replaced twice under warranty. Paint fade here in AZ. Just call the dealer and ask for the parts dept. They can give you a part number if your looking to replace them. They do come painted. At least the sets I received last year.

Lol, roof water diverters/channelers? Mildew sure doesn't sound fun, good luck!

they are there to guide painters who are painting cars with a 2 tone paint job.

or for the aftermarket to know where to put the carbon fiber roof.
