Wheel well moldings
« on: February 27, 2010, 06:50:26 PM »
Has anyone used the OE Reproduction Wheel Well Moldings from Rick's PN# WW-7 in the new catalog?  My car has Good Mark sheetmetal all around.  The cost of the nos stuff is just out of the question for me.  I've tried some aftermarket moldings from eBay...I think they were supposed to fit on a Toyota or something.  They were not even close to fitting a 69 Camaro!

Absolute crap.  Paper thin and not even close on the fit.  >:(   But that was about 3 years ago.  Maybe they have a better supplier now?  I'm just going without wheel well moldings until I hit the lottery.

There was one report on TC of someone using the newly-tooled moldings about maybe a year ago.  Supposedly a lot better than the old ones.

I have also heard from another source that the newly tooled moldings were much better, but I have no first hand knowledge of them though.
