Default Vinyl top mouldings

These mouldings have been in shipping tube for years. I remember them coming from a 71 Firebird. There are 3 pieces. Can anyone look at them and make sure that is what they are?
Maybe 58 inches across side to side.
Thanks

I can't see a picture but 3 pieces suggests it's for the sail panels around to the rear end. Just guessing at this point.

I think it suits certain cars and trim levels, makes them stand out among a row of black TAs.

I agree, they do stand out in crowd. If taken care of, they won't cause problems like they did from sitting out for years. Kinda rare to see a vinyl top on a f-body.

Really, they are the bottom trim that runs from the door post, under the sail panel, across the filler panel. Connect them and lay them on the back of any second gen. You'll see how it fits.

Really!? I for one, love a black top on a silver body. (Somehow that turned out sounding kinky. Not sure why.)

x2 different if in poor condition, but when mint....I think the stripe works so much better with the tops, would look out of place without it to tie it in.

I wrestled with as black on silver is great. IMO, the trim discussed cuts at a 90 degree the beautiful 1/4 panel curves, and de-emphasizes them. Kind of a trade off.

That is my next dilemma. I am considering a painted black (or charcoal)
side stripe emulating the stick ons. Non reflective and behind emblems without cut-out.
