Add chrome trim?
Can the chrome trim used in the dent along the body be added to a pickup that did not have it originally?

It can, but unless you are using stick on trim, it's gonna require holes and various clips in a straight line.

Yes it can, I added it to my truck. It was fairly easy to do. There were some holes to drill, & studs to weld on.

I used a stud welder with a trim rivet stud adapter. Like this: https://www.eastwood.com/stud-welder...rivet-tip.html
