'50 Hood Trim Clip

Does anyone make/sell the small clips for the "C" shaped trim on the front of the hood for '48-'50?

I found a company that reproduces all of them. When I get a chance I will go through that paperwork and see if I can get you their number....

Here's the trim, looks like a bag of clips come with it. Don't know if they sell that separately.

AXracer already posted this... I ordered the clips for the spears, name plats, and the ones your talking about. I also have the door stops.

You should be able to go to a local body shop and see if they have moulding clips. Thats what i used on all the hood trim on my truck. They also come in different sizes.

Wow! Good site AX but they are expen$ive. $1.10 per clip versus $10 for a box of 50 from MBF. Pages 120-128 have all the wire clips but I see that a few are missing that have odd bends to them.

Thanks to 51panelman for sending samples I think that we have identified most of the clips or an alternative (see https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1021642-delux-hood-trim.html#post11605126). Saxonj if you don't get what you want PM me with what you want and I'll send you some when I get them. The C or U shaped '48-'50 clips are AV11409 which is on order. I'm going down to MBF this afternoon and they should be in.
