Are we talking Challenger mouldings or Cuda mouldings?  I got my Challenger mouldings from R/T Specialties.  I'm not sure who the manufacturer is thought.  They might be Metro pieces.

They fit well, but did need some work to match the profile of the fender/quarter.  It's best to test fit them before paint.  You'll most likely need to use some clamps to get them to fit snug before drilling the holes in the fenders/quarters.

Thanks, well it is for a 70 Cuda and the holes are already in the fenders and 1/4s. Just wanted to know how well they fit and look, I am not going to repaint just need the trim ...

Any other input too. thank you!

I test fitted mine before paint.I am glad I did.You probably will have to drill some new holes in some areas,some of them might need to be cut for the length.It will take 3 guys to do it just so you dont scratch your paint,even then it is going to be tough.

They all have little issues here and there, The number you have is for 68-70 Plymouth B-body,  for the Cuda it would be CMW7074PE, the cuda moldings fit ok. you will need 3 hands to fit.

Dave thanks and thanks guys, so are these made decent? I know I saw some i think they must be made in China that were kinda crappy and did not line up at all.

So have you done these and the look decent and line up good?

My car had them but when it was repainted they were not put back on, they had a lot of dings etc...

It would be nice if they lined up with the factory holes too, but maybe there was not a standard on the holes?

I will stay as I am, car still looks nice without, or if I hit the lottery I could spring $1500 for a NOS set, unless I can find one set for a lot less, but I dought it!
