70 Trans Am Power Windshield Reveal moldings
Hey Guys, anyone have a good source for high quality or NOS front and rear aluminum reveal molding sets. I know there is a lot of junk out there but there must be someone making a good aftermarket product.

If you have good originals, I believe they can be stripped of the original anodizing, and restored.
There's no guarantee even NOS will fit well. Most of the NOS that's still available was manufactured long after these cars went out of production, so they didn't get the benefit of the quality checks that were in place during production of cars. For service parts, tooling gets stashed away for months at a time, then brought back out to run a batch, perhaps with operators that haven't previously made the parts, etc. And these trim moldings require some tuning and maintenance of the bending/forming equipment to product good parts.... I purchased a set of NOS 20 years ago, and the piece that went across the top of the back window was so far from fitting that the guy doing the body/paint on my car at the time wouldn't touch it....
