Yeah, I was wondering the same thing... but damn $1200 seems a little much for rubber... I'll probably just save myself the wad of cash and sand that **** down like DREYKO said.

Ray Crowe at Malloy Mazda has a better price than Victoria British. The left and right windshield pillar garnish is expensive everwhere. Here is a little trick I did to mine and it worked perfectly. Take a router ( I have it inverted in a box as a shaper ) and remove the chipped overhang then smooth any ruts with a flat file. Paint it with SEM Trim Black and it looks like new. Be careful of your fingers when doing the shaping. You will like the results.

yes the price I listed was a lot but it was for windshield trim, all three pieces, hatch glass trim, hatch trim, hatch rubber seal, door rubber seal, sunroof seal, passenger and driver door upper trim, lower trim, interior window trim, window seals. Most of the items are rubber but the rest is metal and plastic. and those are the difficult ones to restore. The reason I spent that kind of money is that this car is a 100% restoration/modernization/conversion/shineafaction job. for most people it would not be worth the cash but to make the car perfect it had to be done.

I just looked at that link and it is NOT for the trim it is just the rubber that attaches to the trim just in case anyone wanted to order it I wouldnt want people to be dissapointed.
