Andrew - The protective side strips one of my Spiders meets your description, but a couple of them was so beat up that a new insert would not have done the job. I ordered completely new pieces from a San Diego company called Custom Auto Trim and Graphics. Their web presence is under AutoMega. Here is the web page for the actual trim:

My 72 Berlina has the typical side molding trim strip Alfa dealers seemed to add to virtually all Berlinas, some GTVs, some Spiders. A metal channel section that rivets to the body with a black rubber strip insert, kind of a D shape in cross section with a barbed base that is held in by the channel. My rubber strips are old and tired. Is this stuff still being made, or something that'll work? I'm painting the car, want to keep the strips, but would like to spruce up. Thanks all.
