68 C10 Chrome Side Trim Install
Installed chrome trim today. The kit came complete from Mar-K, and the quality, fit, and finish was awesome. It was relatively easy to install, but it's always a little scary drilling into fresh paint. I think it turned out great and the chrome really breaks up the white paint.

Re: 68 C10 Chrome Side Trim Install
I just installed the Mar-K kit as well. Same experience with it as you. Great fit and finish but a bit nervous drilling all those holes!

Re: 68 C10 Chrome Side Trim Install
You think drilling into paint was nerve racking? Try cutting up half of that crazy expensive kit to fit a stepside
 Truck looks great! The 67/68 trim looks so good on these trucks.
