    I had a road construction incident that almost knocked off my driver side, rear door, lower trim. It was being held on with the rubber seal and back screw. It was knocked off all the white clips. After pulling it off, other than some missing part on the very bottom, it does not look too bad. You can not see the missing chunk from the side of the car. I am guessing there is no way to find a matching part. I just going to reattach it. I may or may not reinforce it with fiberglass.
    I need help to identify and source the two clips. One that hold the rubber seal and the other that holds the trim.

    you can take them clips you have left to a auto parts store and find them im sure. just need to match em up.

    and that part is called a rocker cover if you'd like to just find another one vs repairing it.

    I was trying to keep from painting, the odds of finding the right color, I guess is not good.
    Are all the GP trim models the same for that part?
    I think I found them on Amazon. I order them, if they are right I will come back and post a link for anyone else who stumbles across the thread.

    You can check on Ebay. You might get lucky and find the right color!

    May have found one. Call me suprised. I did not drive the car today, so I will have to wait till I get home Right now it is looking a little to silver, but the difference is so subtle that lighting can make a huge difference.
    Still $100 by the time shipping and all. First things first, I need to get the paint code.

    Finally got around to looking at the paint code, if my searching is correct, it is called Dark Tarnished Silver. Unless it is a 2012 Cadillac, then it is Silver Smoke.
    I found it in the spare tire well. Or on this model is it call, fix a flat well. :-) Not sure if this mode had one on the trunk. Long ago, my wife got hit and it was minor but the trunk lid was replaced.
    Other than a few clips, it not going to cost anything to try and put the old one back on.
    Anyone running across this thread, here are the clips I found for reference.

    The white one is Amazon.com
    The black one is Amazon.com

    The rocker panel flares out on the base GP, and goes straight down on the GXP.
