I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

Title says it all. I want to know where you ordered and pro's/con's of the mouldings.

I'm fixin' to order my side mouldings and have a few choices. There are more vendors for these for now I picked 3.

1. I have a 20% coupon for Classic Industries
Mouldings 370.99
Fasteners 80.99
-20% =361.58 (Made ??)

2. Mar-K American Made, no coupon
Mouldings/fasteners=411.50

3. Truckandcarshop.com
Mouldings/fasteners=319.00 (Made??)

Alan,

From what I've read and seen on here go with Mar-K all day long.


MADE IN THE :flagw:

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

IMHO...from what I've read in your posts,you have bought quite a few of your parts from Mar-k and had good luck with them. They're made in America, you have "Not" cut any corners in your build, so whats a few extra bucks for the most eye catching trim on your truck, and more than likely the highest quality part available.

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

just an opinion , because I have no facts, but I would order mar-k... I have slowly been learning that cheaper isn't always the best route....

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

Iam also considering some long bed trim from mar-k. I have been trying to buy american in almost everything i can find. I plan to buy several things from mar-k. Hope someone who has their trim can chime in.

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

I just got an email 10% off promotion special from Mar K for $500 and up and then 15% off for $1500 or more purchased good through April 1st. Looks like a deal to me.

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

I agree to buy American and i did just that tonight. Even tho there is a $100 spread from the cheapest to the Mar-K. Too bad their coupon kicks in at $500, the mouldings don't cost that much. Thanks for the input. I'll post up pics when I get the parts.

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

Id like to see some pics when you get them. Do you have some stock pcs to compare them to? Im sure they will be fine.

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

I bought the Mark k set and they look good, and they were on sale for 379 I think. I will however leave them in the tube until probably next year.

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

Alan, will you show pics of the taping, painting and hole drilling for your stripes?

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

I'll post up pics when I get them. I don't have any stock pics right now. Mar-k has a good pic on their site.

They will probably go on sale next week. :lol:

I might post some here, but more than likely they will be on my build. ;)

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

Thats cool, I will be doing that part sometime soon too, when I can afford the side trim..lol Im going with white in between the strips...I think??? Your pics will be a motivator for me , as always.

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

Dang it, I wish I need more stuff from them so I could take advantage of that discount code. Currently, I just need the tailgate hinges.

I was talking to a guy at the CPP show that bought from a different company. You could easily tell the side trim that was original and what was purchased from the vendor that sold non-american parts. Honestly, they weren't even close. I think you'll be more than happy that you went that route.

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

I bought mine two years ago. I was just checking the price for someone on the board and they were $379 but when I tried to leave the site they offered them to me at $336 so I jumped on that offer. Mine are still in the tube too.

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

Mar-K. Looks great. No complaints.

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

Mar K is a forum vendor... they might have given you a discount or something.

With yer epic build thread, maybe they will.

It never hurts to ask.

I've read and been told very good things about Mar-K quality and customer service by lots of folks who have actually used their parts. Even when there was an issue, it was handled very well. They take good care of their customers from all I have read and been told.

Scott, your right it doesn't hurt to ask. I did just that a few weeks ago and they told me about the current coupon code. They will call me today to confirm my order.

i just acquired some bed trim in a big lot of parts i found local. i figure i'll end up buying a complete kit tho since i want it all to match. IMHO these trucks need this trim to look finished.

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

I got my trim and started installing tonight. I need ya'lls opinion, what are your thoughts of the finish and is it supposed to be like that. I just emailed Mar-K so I hope to hear from them tomorrow. I would assume the finish should be uniform, bright and shiny. All the wide mouldings are dull.

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

That doesn't look right to me. I'll look forward to their response. Everything I've read says they're top notch.

Re: I need trim for the sides, where did you get yours and are you happy
 

Their customer service is awesome.

Just got off the Phone with them and they told me to tell them exactly what pieces I need replaced and they will hand pick some and send them out with a call tag for the return.

Now that's how a good company deals with issue's, I run a small business that depends on referrals that's why we take care of our customers problems immediately. Cheaper prices usually don't mean quality products and sevices
