Hi gang,

I searched and didn't really see what i was looking for so i thought I would ask here.

I need a complete kit of trim clips - fender, window reveal, and side molding ('46 Ford) to mount trim on my car. Are there any recommendations as to who supplies the best quality for fit, finish and function for these clips?

In searching, I have read where others have used kits from Mac's and I've also heard people recommend Restoration Specialties. I am looking for a complete kit for a '46 Ford Tudor and am willing to pay a little more if it means that the quality and function is good.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Usually there is only one place that makes these clips and the rest sells them. I looked at the carpenter site and those look fine. I'm never unhappy with carpenter.

I got mine from Drake and everything fit fine, I am sure Dennis Carpenter has the same.

Duck or Wood craftsman will do just fine. I've used them both for my 46/48
