I just purchased a set of "NOS" wheel well moldings for a premium price and I gotta tell ya, Im really disappointed. These things have lots of dings, scratches, and dents. Anyone had any luck making these things look good again? thanks, Kevin

I will give him a call if I can't get these looking like new myself. I was hoping that others on here had got a scuffed up set of new ones or refurbished some used ones.

I just saw a set go on ebay for $500. You can still get 2 of them from GM for $50 ea. Unfortunately they stick it to you for the other 2.

I am pretty sure they are anodized. They would have to redone if the are polished to look right and not corrode.

That's just great, anodized aluminum. I could end up with an a world record amount for these moldings before this fiasco is over. I WISH I had paid $500 bucks for these...:mad: Burned on ebay again:clonk: Kevin

You can open a dispute eon eBay.
I can tell you it works.
Last year I bought a 67 "NOS" tail panel. When I receive it, it was a cheap repop. I open a dispute. The seller never answered and eBay returned my money back less 25 bucks.

Good luck

I did pay with paypal. Im going to send a message to the seller and voice my dissatisfaction and see what happens. I just couldn't believe that they were in such bad condition. They did have the old paper wrappers but all had been opened. These look like they have been on a car before in some ways. I would really like to send them back and try again. It couldn't be much worse.
