    Hi in debating between genuine Toyota body side moldings and another brand. How thick are they 1/4”, 3/8”? Also are they hollow on the back side so they give when hit, or just a solid long piece?

    Call me Cheapskate but the factory stuff is way way more expensive than compared to you get comparatively for the aftermarket product. Same thing comparing WeatherTech floor mats versus the "Other Guys".
