ABSTRACT:
Trim strips are provided for decorating automobile doors and the like. The trim strips are of generally rectangular shape and have a length longer than the width of the door that is to be decorated. The trim strip includes a foil member whose upper surface is provided with a decorative pattern. A partial section of the upper surface of the foil member bears a weather-resistant and impact-resistant plastic overlay having radiused edges and providing a lens effect to the foil member. The plastic overlaid section of the foil member is essentially coextensive with the width of the door to be decorated. When the trim strips of the invention are applied to a door, the uncoated ends of the foil member are wrapped around the door edges and bonded to the door's underside.
