Parking Lots Are 'No Man's' Land

So the parking lot where I work is fairly large and unpatrolled. Recently one night as I walked out to my car I noticed a large scratch in the rear passenger side rubber trim and a small scratch which penetrated through the paint and clearcoat.

I'm thinking some car/van/suv cut to close pulling in/out of the parking spot next to me. They're fairly small and angled and most of the people there consider bumps and dings like this normal wear and tear on a vehicle. Except "freaks" like me I suppose.

Anyway I ordered some touch up paint for the scratch. My question is does anyone know where I can order the black rubber/plastic trim pieces online? I'm going to try and either fix it up a little myself or take it to a body shop. But if I take it to the body shop I would rather just provide the pieces and paint to them rather than get charged for them.

Jeeze I hate parking lots.

Just call classic, one of the vendors, and tell them what your want

That, or someone that might have an extra set because they painted theirs. You might keep an eye on the marketplace.
