Door edge trim pictures?

Searched the forum and no one has pictures of what the door edge trim looks like. Would someone please post up a couple pics of their car with the colored OEM door edge trim on it?

Thanks!

I know you're looking for photos of the OEM edge trim, but as a suggestion from a satisfied user, there is an alternative to the OEM trim (which in my opinion looks bulky on the door edge)... take a look at the 3M door edge guard tape (made from the same material as the clear bra) that you can purchase directly from the 3M website:

I installed the edge guard on my doors almost two years ago and it still looks great today. The thing I like about it (similar to a clear bra) is that it protects the door edges from dings, and unless you look closely at the paint surface, you don't notice that the door edges have trims applied.

my 06 tsx came with the OEM edge trim and I am very happy with. It is not that bulky, IMO.

Would you be able to snap some quick pics of it for me? I'd really appreciate it!

I've thought about going this route as well, but I wonder if there's a way to apply it so that the plastic just barely covers the edges of the door and doesn't overlap that much onto the outside of the door where you can see it. This would definitely be a cheaper option. I wonder if I could buy this stuff and put it on other parts of my car as well. I didn't see a "bulk kit" version on their website.
