Body side trim measurements
I have a non trim truck and trying an experiment with getting trim alternatives.So if someone can give me the measurement of how wide the top and bottom pieces are would be appreciated. I can figure out the length. Thanks

Re: Body side trim measurements
GP Texas! Hello neighbor!
Are you planing on buying new moldings or? This is how I am going to do my molding on my non custom trimmed truck. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=597891

Re: Body side trim measurements
This build is on at tight budget, and that trim is expensive.I may do paint or pinstripes or something else.

Re: Body side trim measurements
Go through Sw Classics, they get theirs from Mar-K but it’s priced better

Re: Body side trim measurements
I would be interested in seeing what you come up with for a solution. I also have a non trim truck and had been thinking about trim alternatives.
I had considered painting the trim (silver for the chrome and white for the inset). Also considered using vinyl/plastic chrome or black trim to simulate the original. I talked to a guy who makes and applies photographic wraps (like used on commercial vehicles for advertising) about doing something with wrap material but he didn't seem interested in trying to do a chrome trim rendering. |

Re: Body side trim measurements
Quick question on the hole sizes to drill. What size holes for the top molding and the bottom molding?
