Molding massaging!
So, I’ve been dreaming of trying to put Custom/CST molding on my dually since 2004 when I got it, and even moreso in 2007 when I put the dually bed on it. Today I finally tried it, and I’m very happy with how it turned out. I going to change how I mated them together where pieces on the humps meet the ones on the bed when I do the final ones that are going on the truck, but other than that, I finally figured out how to bend it without kinking and distorting the molding. It required cutting little slits in the back side of the trim (where the clips go under) about every 1/8th of an inch to let it bend freely.
It was painstaking (read: a pain in the butt!) and time consuming, but I’m happy with the end result!
