Abstract
A decorative or protective molding which is fastened to the body of an automotive vehicle, e.g. by an adhesive. The molding is comprised of two separate parts which are assembled. The first part is a molding body which is fastened to the vehicle surface. The molding body has a peripheral groove at its base surface, which is wedge-shaped for receiving the second part, a frame, therein. The frame wraps around the periphery of the molding body and extends into the groove. The frame is comprised of an elastic material. The frame is profiled to the molding body where they meet for making a smooth unprofiled transition between them at the exterior of the molding body. The groove may have an undercut in it for holding the frame in the groove.
