Default Chrome trim replacement for bumpers

I am getting my bumpers repainted and the guy is taking off the chrome trim to refinish the bumpers. Does anyone know the size to purchase as replacement? I am looking at cowles roll of chrome trim. I think it may be 1/4 width but not sure. Any help appreciated. Thanks

The bumper trim strips (front and rear) can be purchased online at RockAuto

Thanks but I rather just buy a whole roll and cut it myself. It is much cheaper. I bought a roll from advanceauto for 15 bucks and it is more than enough for my front and rear bumper. Thanks though

The part number for the Cowles is S37750. I used it and it fit perfectly The trim on the bumper will have trouble sticking at first but keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn't pop off.

That's the same part I purchased. It was the only one that was about 1/2 an inch wide. I am giving it to the body shop to install after they refinish my bumpers. They offered to install since they were taking the strips off to refinish the bumpers anyway.
