I'm in need of the chrome trim that attaches to the edges of the seat back and base plastic trim for 72 Cutlass bucket seats. I see that it comes either preshaped and cut to size or as straight pieces. Which is the most accurate to the OE style?

The pre-shaped set is more correct for 72.

 

The pre-formed looks MUCH better than the "piping" version.

 

Ames has the correct seat back chrome trim, looks like OEM.

 

x3 for the contoured set, its an accurate reproduction of the OE trim, and much better than the other stuff which is literally just auto parts store push on door edge chrome.
Well worth the extra $$ if you want it to stay on and look right.

FYI, you will still need to trim to fit, they come long. Also, they are pre-molded to fit the contours, but can still use a little "help". Careful use of a hairdryer or other non-intense heat source to heat them up a bit before you press them on will help them to set their shape once installed.
