Chrome success

Gotta post up and say I'm surprised and pleased with the chrome molding/trim clips I ordered and received from LMC. Got out today and installed the right top and bottom Ranger chrome trim pieces on the tailgate of the blue beast. Had to drill some holes, and learn how the Harbor Freight rivet guns works, but it all went on straight and snapped right into place. Punked out when it hit 103. I'll get both long pieces on the bed Sat. morning early when it's cool. For some reason, thought this would be harder

Click the vehicle tag in my signature...you can see the truck before I finished the chrome. I did the long bed pieces, cab corners, bottom rocker on driver's side and the tailgate pieces...still missing one of those, and still looking for the top right tailgate chrome piece that runs from the tailgate handle to the outside edge of the tailgate. If anyone knows of a derelict truck (69 Ranger) with the tailgate trim intact, let me know. Patience and a little practice with a rivet gun is all it takes to redo the chrome trim pieces...once you find them.
