65 Impala rocker panel trim

I need to replace these pieces and am curious if anyone has had the aftermarket ones and from whom. Were you happy with the quality? That sort of info...

 

[bigdon-65impala]

Nobody?

Why can't you just restore the originals. The quality is much better then any aftermarket product.

 

[bigdon-65impala]

Probably better idea....

I guess I am referencing my 1970 Blazer restore. I had to replace the body trim, found 2 sets of truck NOS trim but there were some blazer specific pieces that I did not find so ordered from aftermarket guys and it was incredible the look and quality was about the same. I would not have guessed that. Wondered if that would be the same for this Impala trim. I will shoot some pics later of some of the problem areas.

They aren't reproduced anymore. The originals are too thin to take all the abuse being a rocker molding....especially the rear quarter ones. That's going to be a tough item to find. Read that $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!!!!!!!!!!
