Looks like the shop that was to do my chrome trim restoration has a year wait for trim restoration. AMD has 1970 Cuda drip rail molding and front/rear window molding available and wandering if anybody has used it. Is it good, fitment, quality? If so, would you recoment it to a nice resto (not concourse) street car. Any info would be appreciated.

Anyone even hear a peep about the trim for the windows or drip rail trim?

I have used their B-Body drip rail stainless and it is kinda in the middle of fitting a car with vinyl top and one without vinyl top. You will have to adjust it tighter for a non vinyl top car with a squeeze or two here and there. If you have a vinyl top it will fit very, very tight and will need a spread here and there. It is thinner than original but the finish looks great after install. I buffed the trim to a higher gloss before installing it. It will work but whoever installs it should be experienced in stainless installation.

Thanks. i'm not using a vinyl top, so that would not be a problem.

I had the pleasure to talk with Ted Steven’s of Steven’s Performance and he said that the AMD window and drip rail trim has no issues and looks wonderful. I was his and another person who verified this. The only exception is that if someone was having a vinyl top, then the trim would be tight going on, but other wise it fit nicely.

Thanks for the info!

I used them on my Challenger, i think they fit good but the color is off slightly. Could be old versus new not sure. i am happy with them and will reuse after the car is re-done
