Ever see OEM moldings wrapped like this before? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Pretty well set for moldings, but my LH tailgate isn't quite what I'm looking for. Anyway these came up and I pulled the trigger. Tailgate moldings are hard to find anymore, especially nice ones. With luck patience pays off, I haven't seen them yet.

The seller is real nice and forthright, says there's not a mark. I told him I'd never seen them wrapped like that before. He says it's because they're old factory moldings built by GM, as subsequent vendors put them in paper. Interesting info. if true. I thought they were in clay, but he says it's plastic or rubber.
