Blazer Body Trim/Who Sells It?

Finally got to the point of needing to find trim and now what?
After body work, after paint comes trim...right? OK, I'm there but who's got
the good's?
From what I've learned, what's currently out there isn't such great quality.
Anybody have some experience here? Has anyone found a good high quality trim and clip set for our blazers out there?

When I replaced my trim, I decided to go with later model side molding. Stick on type. But I did not restore my Jimmy to original, I made it the way I wanted it. It is also about a third of the cost of the original.

I got the trim from www.truckandcarshop.com - it was good quality and I think I will be putting it on with the 3M double sided tape- I have heard that the trim clips are junk. Here is a little pic...

Thanks, I got it from JC Whitney. It is the same molding used on the 88/95 Cheyenne/Siverado. It comes in a roll. I cut it with my miter saw to get the angles.
2 1/2 inches wide.

Truck and Car and LMC trim

I ordered one peice of trim from both the Truck and Car shop and LMC.

They are both Asian imports of similar quality and price........LMC's came with the metal clips, T&C Shop's did not.......
