So 5 years ago I brought the top door molding for my cuda . From the U.S air mail the add said factory oem no problem I said . When they got here they were Crome Not Anodized I was piss .But. Living in Australia I could not send them back so I used them knowing they were wrong . So doing a few car shows I was getting sick of people saying they were wrong .i had told people I know I know .Any way so on the 1st of April I order and pay for  the correct set of trim molding and clips so  again Air mail . I got the trim today ,and guess what they are wrong Again yes for the second time  wrong .you guys are so lucky you live there . So I m going and try for the third time .iI don't want to name the vendor i got them from . Just one of the hurdles we face down here . :australia:

Sorry that you keep getting wrong parts... It's frustrating here in the States, so I know how much more frustrating it must be for overseas members!

I was asked when I bought a set if I wanted chrome or anodized

If they sent you wrong parts it would be nice for the rest of us to know the vendor so others don`t have the same issue but depends on what the listing said or if you confirmed they were the correct ones you wanted?

Okay...I'm officially confused... :huh:

We're talking about the aluminum trim that goes on the tops of the doors ? Correct ? Who the heck sells them "chrome-plated" I've never even heard of that ?

The only problem is that they are Crome brand new look great but Crome I got them from a mopar dealer here in Australia that restores all American mopars very good collection of  cars him self . So I though I would Give him a go because he had owned me a favour etc . My Visa card was out of date so this once only time I used him .SO I DONOT KNOW WERE HE GOT them from but I will be getting my money back . So I think I have leant a very big lesson get them my self like I use too
