Product Description
Short-Style Fender Trim for the 1988-1998 Chevrolet Silverado C/K 1500 – WZ18182
WZ18182 is the Short-Style version of QAA's four-piece molded stainless steel Wheel Well Fender Trim Molding for the Chevrolet Silverado C/K 1500 pickup, 1988 through 1998, 2-door and 4-door. No width is recorded.
Short Style
The record notes "Short Style" for this set and links WZ18181, which has no style note, for the same trucks. It doesn't say how much shorter, or which parts of the opening each covers. Look at the photos for both listings next to your Silverado's wheel openings, and phone 877-752-3811 with SKU WZ18182 if it's unclear which to choose.
Factory plastic flares
The record states this set does not fit models with factory plastic flares. Check your truck's openings before ordering.
Fastening options
The set clips on or screws in, and both the lock tabs and the screws are supplied. The record doesn't give fitting steps.
Material
The four pieces are molded from imported, high quality stainless steel, polished to a mirror shine according to QAA.
Before buying
Run through it: Silverado C/K 1500, 1988-1998, no factory plastic flares, and a style that matches the photos. If all of that holds, WZ18182 is the listed set.
Cleaning the fenders
Work on a dry day with the truck level. Wash the area round each opening with car shampoo on a soft brush, wipe with fresh water and dry. Take off tar and wax with wax-and-grease remover.
Fitting
Sort the pieces against the photos, as the record doesn't assign them to openings. Check each in place first, then secure it with the lock tabs or screws, keeping it even along its length.
Arrival and care
Count four pieces and the hardware when the box arrives. Store them flat. Mild soap and a soft cloth keep the polish clean.
Clips or screws
The box holds both lock tabs and screws. The record doesn't say which suits a given truck, so choose one and use it for all four pieces. If you want a recommendation, describe your fender openings to QAA by phone.
After fitting
Walk round the Silverado and look at each opening from a few steps back. Check each piece sits evenly. Recheck the fastenings after the first drive and after washing. If a piece won't sit right, stop and call 877-752-3811 rather than forcing it.
Planning the day
Choose a dry day with time to clean all four openings properly before fitting. Lay the pieces out next to the truck in the order the photos show, so each one is ready when you reach its opening. Keep the hardware in a tray so nothing is lost.
The only related part on file is the WZ18181 set.
When the box is open, compare each of the four pieces with the photos and set aside any that looks different; phone QAA before fitting that one. Keep the rest flat until their turn.
Work the front openings before the rear ones, one opening at a time.
