Windshield drip moulding cheap repair

This

This is what it looks like. This is what I used and doubled it up with black silicone rtv sealant. This fix does not obscure the view from within as it is still in the blackened border of the windshield. Wind noise at highway speeds is reduced also.

More pics.




The groove in the rubber fits perfectly over the edge of the trim. So easy to install with the silicone. Saved $$$$$ doing this. The only area that it looks "funny" is at the top, otherwise to a casual observer one would think It came with the car like that.

Looks good to me! My son's new pre-owned 2007 Civic has the same issue. What is the piece you installed and where can I get it?
Thank you for sharing!

Hope this helps.
You will need 4 pieces approximately 38 inches each. I bought a length that was 15 feet and had left overs. I used black rtv silicone sealant for the adhesive. let me know if you need installation instructions.

I did a bunch of research before getting my car fixed, and this page had the most helpful info. Auto Glass of LA Guide. It breaks down cost, what to expect, and the ADAS stuff.
