A pillar drip rail -HELP.

Ok I've looked and there seems to be none available aftermarket.
I'm after the A Pillar drip rail that runs down the side of the windscreen.  I've removed it to sort some rust and need a new one. Worst case I can 'restore' the old one. but surely they exist? The profile is alttle tricky to fabricate.

    I had to use a 2nd hand section from another shell for the same rust repair.

    Cheers

    I've found a guy who does repro's, pretty good, good enough to hold the trim on and look the part. Still looking at my options.

    I ended up using a local guy. rust rite at Mortdale, he's real old skool. 120 a pair. Its an option but not a 'factory' option for those expecting it. Nice guy who is very helpful.
