I have been thinking about putting earlier chrome rocker panels, windshield trim and mirrors on my 82. I like the looks of this stuff on the 74-75 convertibles but will it all fit my 82?

I saw a orange 74-75 vert on here that looked great with all this but I guess it all depends on color as to how good these chrome parts look on the car and color wise I haven't decided yet but I am leaning towards white/silver two tone since the car was originally solid white.
 
Factory rocker panels have never been chrome, just bright metal. You could probably strip the paint off your pair and polish them.

Your windshield and rear window trim is stainless and painted black. Strip the black and polish it.

Chrome mirrors are bolt up but you will have to fill the holes left by the sport mirrors.

:)
 
yea the trim is definitely metal but the previous owner of my car painted them black. I'm thinking about stripping them and polishing them back to how they should look.
