I am assuming you went with the 1" x 24' European style kit from Cowles for $59.50 or did you order by the foot? Is this the cheapest price that any of you have found?

Also, how are you guys applying the chrome trim to the running boards? It seems to me that the Denali/Escalade trim is curved around the round edge of the running boards and not flat against them. A close up picture of anyonethat has it done would be great, thanks.

I don't have a close up but I ran the chrome from the front molded mud flap allthe way around to the back edge of the board. It ran along the top edge of the side.

Exactly what I did and it looks GOOD!!! I did by the 1" x 24" Cowles for $59. I have about 3 feet left after doing both sides and the back. Regarding the sides, it was fine starting from the front but had a little trouble at the rather sharp curve at the rear...I went ahead and used some trimglue in addition to the 3M to make it stick....I don't think it is ever coming off. If it does, I will cut what I have already put on just before the curve in the back and then run another piece to prevent one piece from having to make the bend....hope to post pics this weekend.
