You could try giving Dennis Carpenter a call...won't be NOS but will be made from Ford tooling if they carry it.
Bill would be the best option to contact, by far, to try and trace down NOS stuff...maybe even Dennis (Mi1ion) could help there too. But really, I doubt if there is anything left out there. More than likely, you'll have to cruise the classifieds or ebay. The easiest route would probably be finding a junked truck, robbing the trim, then getting it refinished.
Refinishing can be done, the trick is gonna be finding a place that will remove and replace the anodizing.
It can be refinished? I have a good used piece of trim from the cab I used to fix the accident damage. Can I do it myself? send it out?

There are procedures to do it yourself, but it ends up finishing it in clear, and it'll be tricky to try and get it to match the rest by just refinishing a couple pieces.
True...but there are quite a few body shops (in my area at least) that are usually willing to give it a go.
Are you sure about that?...the reanodizing part?....most places are hesitant due to potential tank contamination...I'm just basing that on the amount of calls I have made and have got that answer....and, if you do know of some...can you get the names/numbers please?....I would like to talk with them....thanks Ben!
I'm going to look for some one to do re-anodizing. I'll let you know.
Several months back, Bill found (1)NOS SC race trac trim piece in the U.S. and I bought it.
A month after that I saw one on ebay and I bought it too.
I paid $100 plus shipping for the one from the dealer. And a little less from ebay.
This is after a year of looking. Good luck
