The chrome window trim does look good but I have to say that I was a little surprised to see that you strayed from 100% correct on something so visible.  Is there no one that does anodizing to make them look like factory? It's still awesome. Just curious.

I do like the chrome even if the car is suppose to be 100% correct.

The drip rails are S/S and I polished them to a hi-gloss. As for the front and back window trim they cost about $700.00 to get 8 parts chromed and they do look awesome!
Thanks!

Put the back glass and trim on tonight. I hope to work on it tomorrow after I seal the deck.

Had a bran fart last night as I forgot to paint the back lip of the package tray with the interior blue paint before I put the glass in. so it cost me about 3 hour to tape, mask, paint the little 1 ½” lip. Not much room to work, but it looks like it was painted with the glass off! On a cool note my wife picked up the October issue of Hot Rod today and there’s a picture of my Camaro on page 54 from the Power Tour. I'm also on page 63 with my son Kurt and 2,375 other long haulers.
