ABSTRACT:
One embodiment is of a non-metallic edge guard for the trailing edge of the front door of an automobile in those models where the leading edge of the corresponding rear door, because of the manner in which the rear door is hinged, executes a small component of motion toward the trailing edge of the front door when the rear door is opened. The edge guard's base is thinner than its legs, and the base is thinner toward the inner leg than it is toward the outer leg. Another embodiment has a curved base of reduced thickness over its central region to fit within a gap between the trailing edge of a door and the mating edge of adjacent body structure. The reduced thickness of the base is attained by selective removal of material after the edge guard has been extruded to a basic transverse cross sectional shape. Material is removed mechanically, by grinding or shaving.
