Default Roof Drip Molding Peeling

Hello All

New To the Forum and new Lexus owner here. Picked up a Moonlight Pearl 2004 LS 430 with just under 90k miles a couple weeks ago. Has the 18 chrome wheels, one owner and perfect service history. Love the car but noticed the other day that the paint on my roof drip molding is peeling off on one side. Any suggestions on a fix or do I need to just order a whole new molding? I'll try and post a picture tonight. Thanks!

Same thing is happening to mine. I'll probably just replace them once they start to really get bad.

Default Peeling Drip Molding

Had the same problem with my 2002. I ordered replacements from Sewell for about $130 @ with shipping and replaced them. They are very easy to do.

Then, a couple of months ago we had a hail storm that did $5100 PDR damage. It looks great again but they had to replace both rails. I kept the old ones as each one had only one dent.
