I know this isn't what you're asking for, but just to give you an idea of an easy solution that looks as good as anything else... I bought some rubber adhesive molding with chrome mylar online, I forget the name of the place but they sent me a sampler of every profile and size they make, and one of them was a perfect match to the bullnose trim and stainless So-Cal cowl spear. I then ordered enough to do my 3 piece hood and it's been on there for 3 years now without a problem. If interested i can track down where i got it.Last edited by joeybsyc; 06-08-2010 at 01:54 PM.

Joe,
If it's not too much trouble, I'd like to know where you got it.

Did some digging, and the stuff was called flexchrome. I'm not sure which size it was that's a perfect fit, but ONE of em' is dead-on. I ordered the 20.00 sampler kit and matched up the one that fit, and have even ended up using the other sample pieces for other things, including shims under the rubber hood to cowl seal to make my hood line up better! The piece on my hood has held up perfectly, looks as good or better than any polished stainless trim does, and was done in about 10 minutes. I'd highly recommend it.Joe Barr
