Chrome insert for Bumper and Side molding

Does anyone know where you can get the chrome inserts for the bumper & side molding for the 94 marks? Looking to have my car repainted and need to replace this stuff because it's peeled.

Thanks, I also saw where another style was used for Marks. I sent a email asking which one should be used. Did you use this style?

 

[driller]

Yes, but not on the bumper(s).

Yes, but not on the bumper(s).

So you didn't do your bumpers or you used another style?

I did not do the bumpers since they looked fine.

I remember an old thread where the bumpers were different. It had something to to with the backing being on an angle?

All areas of mine need replaced. Looking into having the car repainted and wanted to replace all of fake chrome. Was going to fill it in but car seems to need the chrome break up.

Hey Lagalaxy8 I replaced mine last year. Got a whole roll of it for ?? $20.00 at Autozone. Was the easiest repair ever. Just need a utility knife.

For the bumper, I just split double sided tape up the middle and put it on one side of the double sided tape that comes on the chrome trim. This makes it closer to the angle of the original profile. It's not perfect but it works.

After looking at the photo, it looks like an extra full size layer of double sided tape on top of the split piece would bring the thickness closer to original. I'll have to test this on a spare bumper.

Here's a shot of an original bumper piece (I just did this swap on my black Mark VIII front bumper). Notice the angle of the surface with the adhesive still on. It was hard to get a good shot of it, but you'll see it when you remove yours.

I'll stop at Autozone this weekend and see what they have in stock. FlexChrome never got back to me.
