I purchased rear window molding from OPGI
For my 66 Skylark It doesn't seem to fit it looks like it is not the right bend and maybe too wide
Attached pics. Looking for alternative products
Any info would be appreciated

no surprise there. the aftermarket trim is not made well and really does not fit as you see. i would source factory trim pieces. they made need polishing, but they will fit. in the end may cost a bit more but worth it.

i learned the hard way years ago with these moldings. you will be better off in the long run. try 1 of the salvage yards out west they have a lot of those cars. maybe a chevy or olds may be the same but i can't say for sure. good luck.

Return it, tell them to make the part better.
 
i have yet to find a good quality repo part that fits like o/e. for me i will source out either NOS or a good quality used part. you can send them back for a refund but the Chinese co making those moldings don't give a flying fig but you would think OPGI would because it's their name.
