who makes the best ss windshield trim

I have a new windshield and precision gasket but am looking for who carries the best ss moulding trim. Mine is a 71 and I have the grooved gasket for 71-72. If anyone has bought some or has an extra set, the help would be appreciated. I need front and back..

Is the windshield trim all the same from 67-72?

Back is the same 67-72 Big Back window. Front runs 67-70 and then 71-72 Mar-K don't make windsheild trim only one factory that I am aware of. So if you buy aftermarket it all comes from the same place.

Best bet is to find a nice OEM set.

Re: who makes the best ss windshield trim

The aftermarket made by Counterpart does not fit worth a cr--. I tried three sets and then got an original set and it fit perfectly. I have an extra set for a 67-70 that has been polished I will sell for $125 plus shipping. The best rubber gasket is from Steele Rubber.
