Arrow Wanted: 70 Wheel well Trim

I want new old stock, or, show quality used, 70 wheel well trim, stainless steel.
The reproduction aluminum ones for sale everywhere are JUNK!
There is a set for sale on ebay, but the guy wants $400.

That wheel trim NOS at $400 is a down price from the last 6 or so sets I have looked at and bid on. All of the last year, sets on Ebay or outside of ebay have gone for over $500.00. Repairing a set that is in a condition to do so is not cheap either. there is a guy in St Pete FL that is as good as anyone and make things look new to nearly new but I am sure wheel well trim would be $100 to $150 per piece. So $400 is a good price if it goes for that? I found a local set a few years ago but all 4 pieces had shelf rash and the fix plus the cost was to high so make sure they are in the bag and not marked up.

Good Luck

Skinyfisher...
WOW! I had no idea these trim parts are so dear.
I thought paying $200 would be a lot, but if they were NOS, they would be worth it.
I am beginning to realize some things you WANT, you just have to pay the price!
Thanks for the reply, my 70 is going to have some paint on it in the next couple of days.
I'll post pics ASAP.
