Body Side Moldings actually prevents door dings? Worth it?

Do you think the add on door guards will prevent door dings? Anyone have pics of them installed on a 6th Gen.?

I got them on my . You cant see them if I take a picture. They will protect the edges of your car. But will still ding another vehicle. I don’t know if they make the horizontal door ding strip

Thanks for the reply, I guess I should’ve said the adhesive color coded body moldings that run parallel to the ground on the lower edge of the doors.

Changed the title for you to: Body Side Molding

Here's an image of the OEM body side molding

Okay... I considered the body side moldings, but concluded that they cluttered the clean look of the sides the truck. I think one is always subject to dings from varying heights, if you choose tight parking.

Going with a full body XPEL PPF to prevent such occurrences.
