Default 1966-67 NOS front Wheel Well molding 129.00

The Parts Place has a few NOS moldings in stock for 129.00. I just ordered one. They only had one side though and I forget which one. I had to go repro on the other side. I'll be curious to compare them side by side. Anyways thought I'd share as I think 129.00 is pretty fair for NOS. Shipping was 25.00 for both.

Thanks for the heads up..I have new GM ones waiting to go on after the car is painted but can't remember if I have all 4 or not. Going to check and order them too if I need them.

Please report back on the quality of the repop vs oem, would be good to know!

I bought some NOS wheel opening moldings for my 1967 GTO . They were in sealed wrappers. They were different than the ones on my car. The original ones were tapered at the ends where the replacement ones were cut off squarely. I polished the originals and reused them.

I only have 1 side of my originals and I think its the same side as the NOS so I'll compare all 3. Unfortunately it is dinged/dented pretty bad. Not sure how nice it would straighten out.

Got the 2 wheel well moldings. The NOS one seems to have some scratches and nicks which can be expected from a NOS part. The ends of the original seems to have more of a point, the nos still has a point and the repro is more square. I didn't completely open them to do a thorough comparison.

The repop looks like it has more shine to it.
