The body molding is beginning to peel away near the front door of my car. Any advice on how to secure the molding without a total repalcement?

If I remember correctly, nearly any auto parts store has the proper adhesive. Follow the directions to a T, and you should get good results.

I’ve had good luck with 3M Molding Tape.

3M is the self-adehesive tape you want to use.

Just make sure the contact areas are clean.
