Does anyone know if the black pin strip that covers half of the chrome trim molding around the blacked out front grill and the rear panel on a 71 Challenger RT is repopped by any one??
Thanks for any leads..

here is a picture of what I mean. Although not correct, is it possible to reproduce this look by painting?

My '71 Headlight bezels were painted & have the black stripe to define the upper edge. I actually (very carefully) touched up with flat black paint and installed new tape from "Performance Car Graphics" in Florida. They make the tape stripe for the headlight bezels as well as the unique to 1971 front hood trim piece

The tape is available from Performance Car Graphics.

There is no tape on the rear trim.

TI,

Thanks for any help.

Yes the rear trim is painted up to the part line of the part.

I can post some pictures of what the original parts look like later tonight.

Thank you. I gathered this information some time ago on an old thread. But I am getting closer and i want to see a few more examples to compare. https://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/show...&PHPSESSID=

Do you think they used tape to cleanup a sloppy masking job?

Judging from the "original paint" pics in my link, it looks like everything they did was sloppy!

LOL - ain't that the truth. NOS buckets do not have the tape on them.

Why they did it I don't know. Seems like a waste of money but it could be the tape was cheaper than the extra prep time.
