Default Rocker panel moldings

Hi everyone. I ordered and received today, new rocker panel moldings from Ames, which are quite nice I might add. They look identical so I don't think there is a left or right?? Anyhow, one side of the molding is curved and the other is beveled. I didn't notice this when I took my old ones off. I wasn't paying attention as usual. So, which side goes up; beveled or curved?? Many thanks, Carmine.

I looked at some pics on line and resolved my issue. The bevel side goes up and there is a slight difference between the right and left moldings. The front of the molding will be straight and the rear will have a slight curvature to it. Hope this might help others, Carmine.

There are left & right sides. The front edge is a squared off end, the rear has a small radius on the bottom corner.

Thanks Steve. I figured that out myself and for once I was right. I fit both to one side and the squared off end fit better against the front wheel well molding. Screws also seemed to line up better. Got them on. They look real nice, Carmine.

I have the rear hood trim to put on and then yes, I will be posting some pics of the car next week. I'll even have some shots of the underside. Looking very much forward to showing the finished result, Carmine.
