How to Install Exterior Body Trim on a Chevrolet or GMC Truck | Kevin Tetz with LMC Truck

[@michaelbenardo5695]

Now I know how to install the rear trim piece on the cab and the corner moldings. Thanks!

[@donaldbaker6961]

Wow someone posted the bob ross of Auto body / automotive so true he stays so relaxed great job 😎 Kevin

[@Nowayjose-z2r]

Normally the tv mechanics really are not that good mechanically but are good "actors" (for a lack of a better word). Kevin I r3eally believe is good at both and better mechanically than "actor" as he can be annoying as hell sometimes, but the content is always awesome and makes perfect sense.

Thx to your video, it was a breeze installing my drip rails

[@brettkoeshall2325]

My dad used to have a green and silver GMC K-1500 Wideside back in late 1970's.

[@danielstrachan8988]

Nicely done and informative 👍👍

[@fredmartine674]

My 86 Silverado has the moldings that you put on your truck but mines all weathered especially the side moldings around the truck, this video is helpful how to install brand new moldings. Keep up the great work and I'm pretty sure I'll be an LMC Truck customer too. Do a video where you put the factory pin stripes back on or better yet, start selling factory stripes stickers in a variety of colors. I don't think the dealership even sell the stripes stickers anymore.

[@wingman427]

Great video. Awesome tips for installing trim. Well done.

Man I love these square body trucks

[@melissaweidman3326]

[@banjoshotrodshop39]

Are you gonna do a video on putting the factory pin strips back on I need help

[@roytayman4726]

I’m in the process of doing the same color truck and looking for a factory pinstripe color

[@lewcheniee3653]

I love watching these videos, I’m going to use this on my 1977 Chevy k10

[@markantonelli6452]

Did you ever end up doing this to your ‘77? I have a ‘77 and I want to do this too but those corner moldings are only for the ‘81-‘87. I have ordered the complete trim kit from LMC but the girl I spoke with on the phone tells me that the trim kit for the bedside does not wrap around the corner AND they don’t sell a corner molding. Now I don’t know how I will connect the bedside moldings to the tailgate moldings. I have not received the product yet and I am hoping that when I do, I will find out that she is wrong and that in fact the bedside molding does in fact bend the corner. I’m hoping you will tell me the same. LOL

[@Glubbdubdrib]

Watching your tutorials really inspired me. Buying a 1987 Chevy K5 Blazer next week. Paint is in great shape, but the interior can definitely be worked on. Going to use your website to restore it!

[@joshpeterson8813]

Glubbdubdrib I just bought a 81 with 50k original miles

[@workingmansrestorations7071]

How is your blazer coming along?

[@AverageTexasRedneck]

This will make work on my 85 c10 so much easier

[@braleyshardwoodcustoms8584]

Year model do u have?

[@braleyshardwoodcustoms8584]

I'm in Texas too , and restoring an 83

[@theoldgunguy]

I use to paint and repair these trucks in the 90s at a body shop. We took all the extra rubber type chrome off and left it off. The only piece we left was the cab piece under the back window. That sucked getting that off and cleaned.

[@workingmansrestorations7071]

Looks good. I just bought a 79 c10 and will eventually be rebuilt, but i also have a 73 k5. And an 84 k5 with 454 and 8" lift I am working on

[@mexdrago3009]

Are there Single cab dually trim thin strips and horse shoe because im putting dually fenders on my 73.

[@Lmctruck1]

Hello Max. We do not offer precut side molding for the dually application. We do offer a 32 foot chrome molding roll for Silverado applications. Please see the link below. www.lmctruck.com/1973-87-chevy-gmc/molding/cc-1981-87-pre-cut-body-side-molding-set

[@issacgamboa6501]

Can you explain why the drip rails don’t line up or go on in person and when I push it on it don’t “self lock”

[@thekid3999]

Use a leaser level to line up the tape

[@jakethemonster2720]

I got a 1986 Chevy Silverado I'm restoring do you guys sell the cab emblems goes on the trim on the back of the cab on the side

[@Lmctruck1]

Yes we do, please check out our website.

[@juanmendoza6519]

a question are the edges of the moldings glued or do you have to buy the pen

[@Lmctruck1]

Hello Juan. The pre-cut molding is ready-to-install truck molding with factory formed or factory die-cut end treatments.

[@PhillipHall01]

Maybe you can help me. I can nit find one video in how to remove side chrome trim on 83 F100. How is this done without damaging the chrome trim?

I like these sort of videos. Very helpful. But has anyone noticed that the drip rail over the drivers door seems to be at an odd angle towards the front? 20.00

[@brandonbello9320]

Do you know where I can get all of those side molds at?

[@austin._.lester]

Probably on the LMC website

[@isaicardenas956]

What are the measurements for the fender emblem

[@tomhood1700]

Isn't there supposed to be 2 clips for each corner piece? Or is it different for a little bit older truck? (76 C20)I see where a hole was drilled on the side but not on the back of the cab for it. LMC shows 2 clips each for the corner pieces as well as 8 clips for the straight piece. (76 C20) Video is great BTW.

[@DanFroelich]

I've had issues with this trim peeling and flaking off. So now I need to replace it all. Have their been improvements to the material of the trim?

[@jedwebster8976]

Yes the double sided tape used to on the the stick on portions is much better than the original. Just make sure the paint is clean. Use alcohol cleaner like Tetz did or wax and grease remover. It's also a good idea to have the metal and stick on moldings warm so the adhesive can get a good bond. Good luck

[@jasonwilson6043]

Are those clips for the corner pieces still available? I cannot find them on the site!

[@Lmctruck1]

Please find the link for the comer molding and clips we offer below. www.lmctruck.com/1973-87-chevy-gmc/molding/cc-1981-87-tailgate-molding

You know it’s bad when it’s on a TV show.... TV shows are supposed to be “perfect” examples.

[@GoobledUrGoozle1]

What happened to the paint on the fuel tank door? I have been following this build since I am restoring an 82 and to see all the time, money, and effort that you have put into it, I think you should fire who ever painted the bed. That is a horrible tape line and it just ruins the entire truck. :(

[@turboflush]

It's just a rough paint line, since trim is going over it. A paint line without trim requires more steps. No need for those if trim is going over it.

[@enricopolazzo33]

Bought the 32 foot roll from LMC. Installation went fine on my K5. Few months later the molding chrome finish is starting to look bad and the adhesive tape is separating from the molding causing it to lift. The tape is still well adhered to the body so this was not installer error. Poor quality product and will need to redo the whole job.

[@88chevroletK5]

Mine too. Installed it all. 2 days later all from one side was one the ground

[@MICLANTECUTLI]

I ordered some trim from LMC truck for my 1979 C10. I had it installed and it came out pretty defective and tacky looking. Unfortunately I drilled holes in my truck and paid the shop to install it. And I regret it now.

[@dustinvarnish2905]

What if someone covered the holes on the bed corner
