I'm looking to repair the rust that is on my car.

and the same on the other side again.
However, for the wheel wells, I need to find the same kind of trim. The only place I've found that says they have trim that matches, is actually 1.5" wide!!! Not even close to matching what I currently have.
Does anyone know of a place I could start looking? From what I have found, this is a very rare car so finding parts has been a pain in the butt so far!! (and the few cars I've found are in way worse shape than mine)

anyone have any ideas? Physical locations? Online? Can I use a different year to get the same part?
Help?

If you can't find them.....make the patches yourself. Don't forget that buick shared a lot of components with oldsmbile, you may luck out finding the trim you need on a riviera or something.
Are you looking for panels to repair the rust? You can do as good a job with a mig and some tin and a little know how.
There's a place I know of in Montreal, Que. that'll custom make any panel that you need........let me know if you're interested:)

no no! I need the trim! I can do all the metal work and painting myself no problem, but I can't make the plastic/metal trim myself.
Just the stuff that follows the wheel well on the outside.
