Who makes the best repro trim?
I guess I should have said who carries the best reproduction side moldings. Specifically I am looking for a complete set of black lower side moldings for a 72 blazer. I think different vendors sell trim made in different places and of different qualities. If anyone would care to share their experiences and where they bought from I would really appreciate it.
Thanks John Posted via Mobile Device

I plan to buy from mar-k but haven't yet. They are supposed to be good.

Re: Who makes the best repro trim?
I have bought mar-k, and have a complete set of counterpart. Both look nicer than GM.

Re: Who makes the best repro trim?
Mar-k was more expensive, and a LITTLE nicer than the Counterpart. Unless you placed them side by side, you wouldn't know there was a difference. If you wanted to save a few bucks, buy the counterpart. Once mounted on your truck, you won't know whos they are. I have some NOS that I was going to use on my own, untill I bought some aftermarket for a customer. Now I'm going to sell the NOS, buy some afterrmarket, and have $ left over for other stuff. LOL!

Re: Who makes the best repro trim?
I've seen nice and also junk from counterparts...seems it might come from two sources?
Mark-K is a little pricier but I've heard nothing but great comments about the quality.

Re: Who makes the best repro trim?
Goodmark use to have the best price on trim kits but the Clips are junk. They were selling Apex-Dynacorn trim which I am about postive it comes out of the same box as Counterparts

Re: Who makes the best repro trim?
The ONLY negative thing I can say about the Mar-k is that they don't make every piece, (seems like either the front or rear fender pieces are outsourced) and the black paint didn't match the rest of the pieces.
