Overview

Trim-Gard makes body side moldings, door edge guards, wheel well trim and custom profiles to a customer's drawing. The site routes restoration, fleet, performance and manufacturing buyers to the right products and a quote request.

Key Features

  • Trim Finder: live search over the full profile catalog with per-profile dimensions and compound
  • Find-your-vehicle fitment path and installation guides
  • Quote-driven flow: no cart, every product leads to a drawing-based quote request
  • "Ask the workshop" assistant for product and installation questions
  • ISO 9001:2015 and materials pages built as structured content, editable by staff

The Challenge

Three brands under one manufacturer, each with its own identity and audience, but the same catalog data and quote process underneath.

The Approach

The Uni-Grip engine was extended with brand-level theming, audience landing pages and a vehicle fitment path, so Trim-Gard shares the catalog and admin while looking and reading like its own company.

The Outcome

Launched alongside Uni-Grip and Cowles Products in 2026 as part of a three-site family.
