I am looking to replace exterior chrome body trim on my 70SS. I have used HARMONS for interior with success. Any suggestions are welcomed in regards to a good supplier.
Thanks

We're slowly having our exterior trim/vents/interior items, both chrome and stainless redone. We've seen results that are better than new by going this route.

Is you trim that bad, or are you just not sure which way to go.

Some of the pieces that are redone are close to prices for new (Repops?), however, most of the pricing is approx. 50% lower.

We haven't had our bed trim pieces redone yet, and we have heard that the "Bed Kits" on the market today aren't very good, so we have to make that decision. A couple of El Caminos here in town have new (Repop?) trim on them, and they don't fit at all.

Team Members-Please Note: We are looking for the long eyebrows for our '69, plus a couple of minor trim pieces.

Hope this helps.

Bump? What does this mean?
I am asking if anyone has any good luck with any chrome/trim vendors.....?

b-man,

"bump" just means that the post is being "bumped" back up to the top. It's not a bad thing and really just means that someone doesn't want the post forgotten.

With that said, all the exterior trim I've bought has been driver-quality only. Good luck with your search.

Thank you for explaining "bump". I thought I was trully out of the loop.
I will wait patiently for any insight on chrome trim vendor info.
