I bought a set of repro's from, I believe Paddock Parts,  My trim on the rear was scratched but not dented.  When I got the replacements in, they were thinner than stock.  I bought a buffing whell from Eastman, and took on my 1st buffing job...My originals look brand new now. Come to find out the stock trim is stainless steel, and the repros are just chrome plated.  ( I believe).  Its worth trying to save original trim.

 :crying:

How much buffing will I have to do to the mounting holes till the part shows up??
 :bigsmile:
LoL, just need the left "C", but I'm sure it will be easier to match with all 3 pieces.

I hope you are able to find them elsewhere.  There needs to be more competition to weed out some of the ones with poor customer service skills.
