HI All,

So my Chevelle has made it into paint and body and just got new quarters, and it's time to make up my mind if i am going to put new wheel well molding back on the car or not.
Originally i was thinking about adding the trim back on the car, because I think it will look good with the new color, which is a Light blue silver color.

But we are doing a handful of body mods that are cleaning up the look of the car, such as removal of front and read side markers, removal or bumper bolts, removal of hood pins hole in hood.

Do you think i should add the wheel well trim on the car or not? I assume that folks know what the trim looks like so i don't have a picture of it below.

Thanks Tom

You know I was going to leave them off on my 68 chevelle Resto-mod but I felt it would add a bit of protection against chipping, so I put them on.
You know what, I liked them. I think with your color they would look great as well.

Real Nice wheels there dud

I like them. They've got a nice shape, and I think they add to the classiness of the car. And then there's the fact that the wheelwells are different front to rear. The rears have a little groove that runs the length of the wheelwell, that is absent in the front. I noticed this in the 71 Chevelle I built a couple years ago. It's small, but it would drive me nuts.
