    Wheel well molding part numbers?

    I am in need of a set of new wheel well moldings for my 87 Crown Vic and would like to know the part numbers so I can search that Green Sales place.

    I have the ones for the 90-91 only
    Be prepared the rears are $180 and up depending on the side. the fronts are like $25 a piece so I snagged a pair of those and am holding out for a good used set of rears.
    If you think the 90s model numbers will help I can post them, but yours should be shorter because of the wider rocker molding.

      Well mine travel all the way down but behind the wide rocker trim. I would have to look up pictures of the 90's GM's to be sure if they are compatible but i know 90's cv's would work.

        Mine travel to the lower molding. so Maybe they are the same, unless yours go all the way down in which case mine are actually shorter.

          The back side of the wheel molding is different that yours. Your look raised all the way down to the lower rocker molding whereas mine are raised until they hit the wide upper rocker moldings.

            Yeah, I gotchya, If you have a ford dealership near you they can get the part number for you, that is about all they are good for.

              I apologize. I just went and looked at the molding and the sides that come into contact with the wide rocker moldings are in fact cut off right there. Doesn't mean much...but I wanted to clarify.

              I can still refurbish mine easily with the techniques Nick gave me a crash course in so we will see how things go.

                Yeah I was going to try to refurb my rears but there is too much underside material that is just gone. I really wish there wasn't such a mark up on the NOS stuff. I just can't see dropping $400 on a set of rear pieces of chrome.

                  I found a place about 20 minutes away that restores trim, Im going to check them out tomorrow after school and see what they say. I hope they can replicate it at least.

                    I inquired about these at the Ford dealer a couple years ago.

                    My parts guy said he could get all of them. The fronts were cheap; I think he said $105 ea. for the rear ones. I didn't end up buying them, because those damn things hold dirt, chaffe the paint, and lead to rust.

                      I asked the local ford shop and they are all gonzo.

                        That could just be a lazy parts guy. But it is entirely possible they are all gone.

                          Its definitely two different pieces for cars with and without the 'granny chrome' on the bottoms of the doors. I had to get pieces off a police box when I stripped off all my granny trim. A lot of the holes didn't line up very well either...
