Chrome drip rail

My drip rail on my old 72 is kind of beat up and ugly. I would like to straighten it to the best of my ability and put a chrome cover on it. Is there a kit out there to do that. I think it would look a lot better in chrome than in body color.

There is a stainless kit that caps the drip rail, it will be in our online catalog after the holidays.

Can't wait to see the drip rail kit. It should look great and I'll be buying one more than likely.

I used chrome vinyl door edge guard for 5% of the cost of the stainless, and it has been on 3 years and still looks good. This is the only pic I have that shows it very well.
