WOW! This is cool. It really gives the car a long sleek look!

Nice work Greg. Now get going on the FRP version w/ roll hoops.

Yes, that's easier and cheaper. Scroll down to the bottom and check it out yourself.

C'mon Greg, you stated earlier that you do get wet at stops, but not while you are cruising. How do you not get wet while cruising.

easy, the harder it rains, the faster you go!!! but seriously, when your cruising at like 50-60mph, you don't really get that wet unless its a pretty good down pour

It's the rain that comes off the sides of the windshield that gets me soaked, this doesn't happen to anyone?

Nope. I'm betting your windshield was replaced and they used the wrong trim...

Universal trim lays flush against the glass and against the metal frame.

OEM trim creates a rain channel between the trim and the glass that sends the water up and over the windshield header.

Easy explanation.
