OEM style wood grain for rear aplique - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Tom Vogel** · 04-21-2005, 10:34 AM

Does anyone know where I can get woodgrain tape to match the OEM side moldings? All my side trim is NOS; and Ive polished and chromed the rear aplique. I got a tape kit from a 67-72 supply house, but it does'nt have the real grain to it like the original.
Thanks, Tom

The truckshop has some of the wood grain tape in their catalog. I don't know if it is the OEM pattern though.

Most of the stuff the aftermarket dealers sell is just a basic tape. the original style trim has a clear tape over the wood grain which I have not seen available. The piece from LMC that I bought was about a 1/4 inch to narrow. Craft stores often handle wood grain style tape in larger rolls that you can cut as needed. It is about the same as dealers sell but buying a 6' length at 36" wide, will do a lot and cost about $10.
