Repro side moldings (AMD) - review
 

So I bought a full set of upper and lower side moldings from Summit, which was the cheapest I could find, the brand is AMD and the lowers have woodgrain.
It was drop shipped from AMD.
I finally opened up the box, they look real nice. Each molding is sealed in a clear plastic bag which is marked "Corvex Moldings"
I compared one piece, the short bed behind the rear wheel piece to NOS and in my opinion the corvex molding is just as good as NOS, the molding is almost exact replica and its shinier than NOS.
I didn't check the rest of them but will be installing them in a month or so and will post more then about the uppers and the clips.

Good to know how it all fits. I want to order the paint divider chrome trim after market.But with all the negative on doors, fenders,etc.I've been waiting to hear some good. Will be watching for your answer.

The differences I've seen between NOS and repro moldings is minimal and not worth the cost difference between the two in my opinion

I can say definitively that Mar-K's mouldings are top notch, and will heartily recommend them. I have both the top trim, and the lower wood grain from Mar-K on mine.

I look forward to seeing your full report on these as you go. I think there are some others here who have used the AMD mouldings and have said they are very nice.

I have all Mar-K (except the round corner pieces which he doesn't offer) and they're quite good. The only knock against them is the crispness of the black paint in the inserts, I had to clean that up by hand a little.

I'd be interested to see if someone has a way to compare these, but someone would need to have both in hand to do it...

Member turpmcspray posted all of them side by side years ago, including mar-k, nos, counterpart, etc. they were nearly the same all the way around.

I found that post and looked at it before I ordered my moldings, now I completely believe it. I would like to order a couple Mark-k moldings to compare to these but their shipping is outrageous.

Mar-K does have high shipping costs, but they do it right. They mount the parts on a 1x4 board, padded and placed inside a heavy-duty tube or box. I was very happy to see that it would have taken a truck literally driving over it to have done any damage to the trim when they shipped it.

I will have to try and find that thread and take a look at the comparison between the trim. I have not been very successful in finding old specific threads.

I used AMD, Dynacorn, whatever they go by now. I was very impressed with the quality. Their clips have a bit to be desired. I used a combination of old ones I had and some of the ones they sent with each piece. I'm not a fan of the two sided tape style on the lowers. All the clips I used were metal, whether new or old. Hope this hepls.
