    I needed some corner pieces for my Impala I just painted , they are over $150 each to buy new ,Fuck that I will use these until I find a good used set.Mine were dented and shitty.
    They go on the rear corner , so I grabbed some old 18G sheet metal...

    Polished my bumper and put the rest of these trim pieces on.. If you are not looking at them you don't even notice them,guess thats the point.They look like they belong.
