This is what im talking about, you cant see it in the picture but its cracking and looks bad when you see it close. I thought it was stock like that bc my 85 monte carlo has the same kind of trim? I seaarched google and looked on ebay but only found some really ugly "bling bling" trim.

Hmm, I did find these, http://www.customautotrim.com/produc.../wheelwell.htm . The 1/4 inch would probably be best, ill have to measure mine to see what i currently have
