1987-93 Ford Mustang Exterior Door Molding Pair by 50resto by 5.0 Resto

First, I installed new belt weatherstrips. They seemed to fit fine. Then I unpackaged the belt moldings. When I compared the LMR belt moldings and retainers to the originals, I found that: 1) the molding retainer holes were a different shape, 2) the molding’s metal base was thicker -- meaning that the molding wouldn't work with the original retainers, 3) the molding’s cross-sectional profile was different and 4) the retainers had a slightly different cross-sectional profile and dimensions. It didn't look good. After I had very carefully installed them, there was a 1/8 inch gap between the w/s and the molding -- a perfect place for water, dirt and winter salt to get trapped and for rust to begin. (The original belt w/s and moldings fit together perfectly, with no gaps.) LMR advertises these moldings as having a "Perfect Factory Fit." Well, they don't. And, according to the customer service person I talked to, this is a known defect. It would have been nice to know about that before I bought them and wasted my time trying to install them.

I have an immaculate original 93' LX 5.0 5spd all delete car. My original belt moldings are a bit faded so I thought I would try these. I am disappointed with the fit and the way they look. They have lines in them from the manufacturing process. And they have gaps between the weatherstrip and the molding. And they go on tighter than the originals. I am only hoping they didn't scratch my mint doors as my car has all original paint. I will put the originals back on when I get them repainted or coated. Would be fine for a beater Mustang that is missing the originals.

i watched the video and had no trouble removing the old molding. however, when installing the new aftermarket piece, i found that the circular recesses that were on the originals were square and razor sharp on the aftermarket pieces. after painful install, knowing that i had just gouged my new paint job, i found that the screw hold did not line up on both sides. best to go with OEM.

Just like many other Mustang fox body owners, my trim was faded and broken. These are a relief to have and really clean up those worn and faded doors. I would definitely recommend these to anyone looking to fix their problem areas as well. The fitment wasn't perfect, but that is alright because they stay on very tight. The holes do not line up very well, but they do just fine.

great fit , look perfect just what i needed

Easy installation!

Looks like new

Con: A little overpriced for a bent piece of metal with a rubber cover and plastic bracket.
Pros: Fits perfectly and looks great. Very easy to replace the originals; one screw, slide 1/2 inch, pop off. Seems well made, certainly brightens up the car - I had two mismatched moldings on my 5.0, one original and one cheap repro. Now my baby's doors match nicely. Came with a few plastic holders (not sure what they should be called, like double washer things) and two new screws, so don't worry about saving hardware. Fits tightly once on; the rubber extends a bit and forms a nice seal against the dew wipe.
Note: The metal inside these pieces is sharp, sticks out a bit, and will scratch paint. Once my moldings were on, nothing seemed to be digging into the paint - and nothing scratched when I slid it on. So just be aware.
Picture is of the original off my 1990 LX convertible (top) and the new piece (bottom).

Pros: Nicely made, fits perfectly, very easy install: one little screw, slide 1/2 inch, pop off. Makes a big difference in the look of the car. The rubber covering has a lip along the top edge that forms a nice water seal when the screw is tightened. Set comes with all hardware, so if you're missing any, or pieces go missing when you're taking the old ones off, no worries. I'm quite pleased.
Con: a bit expensive for a piece of bent rubber-covered metal.
Note: inner metal is sharp. Doesn't seem to scratch during install and when installed, but can potentially scratch paint if it's anywhere other than where it needs to go.
Picture: original from my 1990 LX convertible (top), and LMR part (bottom).

Ordered these as a kit with the weatherstrip. I pulled them out of the box and the moulding looked great, but wait. The plastic end caps on both were both broken the exact same way. A quick call to LMR and a few pics later they sent me new mouldings. Now one looks good while the other has defects on the coating. Worst part they dont fit leaving a 1/8" gap exposing the rivets for the weather strip. I just put the factory ones back on.

Installed these on my 1990 convertible to replace the worn out originals. On each of my doors there were only 3 of the 4 plastic clips, so I had to rivet on one of the included replacements. I wound up re-using the original screws holding the end since the included replacement screw didn't want to start easily.

Easy to install and look as good or better than the originals. 4 star rating for an excessive gap between the passenger side outer belt moulding and outer belt weatherstrip. (Also purchased from LRS) I will probably remove it at a later date and do some bending to get the fit correct. Driver side fit perfect.

As the title says another great purchase with fast delivery quality product only speed bump if you would is they are a very tight fit once you've installed new guides so care has to be taken during installation! Now I just need to order new quarter windows and she'll be good as new!

I bouhht these for the restoration on my nephews 1989 mustang. They fit perfect slid right in and look great. They make a night and day difference and they even include the plastic tabs if yours are beoken.

looks great and fits great! only thing is be careful! the video shows it just popping off, but the rivets can come with the old molding! lol just be patient and careful.
another great product from LMR!!

I live in Canada and the parts get shipped so fast its so amazing..I'll always b a happy costumer and appriate every part that late modle restoration provides......amazing service and quality parts...

I bought the few wipes for both doors and put the old door belts back on. Even after painting them they still looked used. Would have saved time getting them all at once. Very easy installation.

The molding in its self is good....problem is, the screw provided is too long and can pierce the new molding if installed without shortening or adding a washer. If possible, use the old screw.

Other than shipping issues with LMR, this particular product is excellent. They fit perfectly and add a lot in bringing my foxbody back to life. I would highly recommend this product.

it took some massaging to get them to fit correctly, I had to bend the rail in to get them to fit tight against the window belt, but once I got that they look great!

I had to get these parts because I bent one removing it. I was afraid that the reproduction parts would not fit or match perfectly, but they did. Great price too

Removed one screw and slid out the old outer door belt molding. Put the new one on and replaced the screw. Both sides replaced in about 5 minutes.

If you have cracks or chips in your outer door belts I would recommend you purchase these. They are easy to install and look great.

Very pleased with the fitment and quality of these moldings, only took about 10 minutes to install, makes the car look a lot nicer.

only took about 15 mins to remove the old ones and install new ones.Fit and finish are great.My car looks so much better now!

Not quite like the original but pretty easy to install. Looks good as new as mine had pieces chipped out and finish chipping.

This pair of door belt moldings are perfect to bring your mustang back from looking tattered. Cheap and easy to install.

Had no problem getting it on and matched perfectly with the car feels better than original and looks so much better
