Inside door jam interior trim

I was looking and can’t seem to find this piece by itself. My doors hit it on both sides and cracked it. Anyone know what it is called?


My door also caught my post trim and it doesn’t look like you can get a repro piece. What is the best way to bend it back?

It looks like that damage would have been caused by a worn door hinge. I bet your gaps door to fender and door to doorjamb (B pillar) are not even. When you get the trim repaired/replaced you should have the door hinges done too.

Your first picture is typically called 'doorjam windlace'. You can find reproductions in most repo supplier catalogs. I would recommend Legendary. One thing to keep in mind - the windlace is really just the round rubber core part that is torn in your picture. It is attached to the textured flat piece that goes over the pinchweld - the flat piece to the right.
That flat piece is important because it is not reproduced. You have to be careful to remove the original windlace without damaging it and attaching the new windlace to it. Most likely, you'll have to dye the new windlace to match your parchment interior.

I will check the door hinge but door seems pretty solid and not wobbly. I think someone’s shirt must have caught the window trim and pulled it out a bit and the door caught it.


Thank you I would not have thought it was called windlace. I will research it.
