Molding replacement
Hello, I have a 1977 GMC grande with molding i have'nt seen on others. It's like an arrow, it starts at a point on the fenders and get to about 3" at the end of the bed. Black in middle with chrome on both sides.
Any ideas on where to look for replacment? I've looked on LMC & JC Whitney, net ect. Last edited by Mechanic707; 02-15-2009 at 06:43 PM. |

Re: Molding replacement
You can buy a roll of 81 up Silverado trim, it is the same size, but you would
have to cut it down to a point at the ends. |

Re: Molding replacement
Like this but I need at least 2 1/2 inch
Seems the Sierra Grande moulding is hard to find. (pic is what LMC has) I did look at a roll of trim to cut it to a point, but it just woulnt look right unless i bought some chrome trim to cover the point. even then..
