You'll need different side marker lights, since the Supreme side markers under that wide trim don't have the chrome surrounds used on the other Cutlii.

Yes, so yay or nay?

I know it’s personal preference but kind of like the clean smooth look without them.

Well if you want it to look like a 72 then go ahead. Personally, I like the look with the wide trim.

I agree with Fun71. I think the trim gives the car the look of style when the trim straight and polished.

I really like the wide chrome trim! My first car was.a ‘71 Supreme convertible (with the wide trim)! I have some good trim ‘70-71 pieces, I might have the ones you need. Which ones are you missing?

Why are you asking us? Your car, your preference.

I like the trim. That's a big space that needs to be broken up. Most cars have the trim missing and 442 stripes put on. How nice to see one like it's supposed to be.

John:
Not sure why my email didn't make it to you. Here are the pics of the RH piece that I have for sale. I ran some extra fine steel wool over it and it cleaned up pretty well but could look better with a little more elbow grease. All the mounting studs are still good and have the speed nuts. Let me know if you want it.
