restored trim

[wicky]

After reading a thread about how to restore our side trim it got a few ?s bouncing in my head. Hope u guys can help me out. Take whatever u have for a truck and answer this question for me please.

Would u rather buy after market trim (grill headlight bezels side trim etc) or would u rather have ur trim restored or buy original restored trim for atleast the price of what the after market costs

Thanks guys for any input on this Nick

For me, I started by collecting NOS peices of trim, and then when I had quite a few peices saved up, I took them out of packages and placed them together, and right away noticed that they differed in color and looked mismatched. Sold them and brought all new trim (complete set) and they looked great. As for the windshield (and back glass) trim, those are stainless and worthy of cleaning up (working dents out, sanding and polishing) but the new ones are around $100-$150 a set so its up to you on how much you value your time.

Just my 2 cents.
