Detroit muscle all 4 door bumpers for $6.93 shipped. Classic Industries wanted $3 each plus whatever the shipping is. I e never ordered from Detroit muscle though. You will be happy with products from DMT . Get stuff from them many times. Got a lot of my rubber parts from them and will be getting the Heater box kit from them also.

These guys? linkIf so, that's Jim's place. He's been a Moparts member for years, and has an annual space at our WPC Winter Swap Meet here in Detroit. He's a good guy. I would not hesitate to do business with him.

I actually split the weather strip in the (other) door with a razor. I couldn't get the tubing to feed without coming loose from the weed whacker cord. It stays in like the drivers door did. A quick darkening with a Sharpie marker and it's hardly noticeable. I'm going to run with this for as long as it lasts and then order new weather strips if need be. I'm pretty happy with this rig job.

Looks good. Not very noticeable at all. You'll have to let us know how it works.

The cool thing is that keeping the door closed over night literally closed the seam. I didnt need to color the beige tubing with a black marker. Everything is holding with no adhesive needed. Very happy! If I had to do it over I would cut it down the same again. If you have a flat weather strip, I would not bother trying to feed it through, just cut it down the middle . You have nothing to loose and I'm happy to say that it works and the seam is now closed. I also ordered a whole bumper kit from Detroit Muscle. so I will now have an extra four door bumpers set. Here is a better picture.

Also when you make the cut, try to get it done in the middle to make it even less noticeable. You can see the seam where I went off. .

FYI. Had left over which looks to be enough to do it again, if need be. Since no adhesive was used, it will be a quick refresh.
