Question Price of black plastic trim on door

Apparently my neighbor doesn't realize that although that piece is there to protect my door from idiots like him, it doesn't give him the right to open his door into my car. Once is understandable, but he's hit it 3x. He's either a complete idiot or just doesn't care, in which case, I hope karma comes biting him in the ass. Can't do anything back to his car since it's a POS 1970s oldsmobile station wagon; anything I do probably would add value. Ok, enough ranting...Does anyone know how much it would cost to replace the black plastic trim that protects the door? I'll eventually have to replace it or get it fixed if the jackass keeps doing it after I talk to him. Parts depts. are closed right and this is eating at me.

Don't know what door or side you are looking for, but here are 4 part numbers and estimated prices:

MOULDING DOOR FRONT LEFT 51-13-8-402-649 ($30.41)
MOULDING DOOR FRONT RIGHT 51-13-8-402-650 ($30.41)
MOULDING DOOR REAR LEFT 51-13-8-402-653 ($16.52)
MOULDING DOOR REAR RIGHT 51-13-8-402-654 ($16.52)

Use a heat gun or hair dryer and heat up the adhesive on the old trim to remove it. I also heard that you could use dental floss to cut the adhesive. I tried that one time and make sure you wear protective glove (ask me how I know). When you remove the trim, do it slowly because it is very brittle and will break.

And here's where I got the parts and prices from:

Good luck!

Sorry if this I'm hijacking the thread, but I think this part in titanium would go good with the titanium window trim. The trim by itself doesn't do well because there is nothing else on the car that is the same color. Anyone else think this would look good?
