Thanks for the tip. Had not thought about tape of some type. It's used on RT qtrs panel scoops and other areas, so why not? But I'm looking at the Alum thinking it might need refinishing as well. Most of the pics on the internet, it's hard to tell if these were black and silver. Most look just silver to me. But quality of pics not good either. I have a body assembly manual with drawings, but there's nothing in there for these pcs.You might determine the width of the black trim and see if black vinyl tape is available in lieu of painting. That’s what I did on my 66 Sat. Took about 45 minutes to do both sides. Imagine how long I would have spent taping it. If you do tape, prime the bare aluminum with a light coat of self etching primer first (available from several paint suppliers but I used black SEM). That enhances adhesion and keeps the paint from spalling on the edges as the tape is pulled off.
