replacing exterior door molding on 2015 Audi A3
 
I recently discovered the chrome molding around the top of the rear passenger door of my 2015 Audi A3 1.8 TFSI Premium 4dr Sedan was missing. I have no idea how it came off.

I ordered the replacement part from ebay here:

It looks like the right part:

I'm not sure how to install it. The door has this rubber V that it looks like the molding should slide onto:

The part has these bend on each end that mean that it's impossible to slide on:

Any suggestions on how to install this would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

What is the part number for this?
 
Hello, sorry this is years later. But any chance you happen to know the part # for this? I have the same issue and I've tried searching everywhere online and cannot find it.

AUDI OEM 15-18 A3 Exterior-Rear-Frame Molding Left 8V5839643C2ZZ

I honestly can't remember if I ever got this installed. I paid $70 for that part. I sold the car not long after that.
