Are all drip edge's created equal? I had my roof skin replaced so need to drill new holes (5 of 7) for the drip edge. In getting things laid out, it seems my drip edge is tweaked enough I want to replace it.

Do the holes on the aftermarket pieces line up with the originals? Who has the best quality?

You can pop the chrome piece off with like a bottle opener if not worried about damaging it and roll on the new chrome pieces. It's 2 piece a rail screwed to the roof and a trim that snaps on over it.

Not a square but shows how it pops off with a bottle opener.

Need to swap the passenger side one on mine since it looks like someone fell into it/caught themselves and palmed it hard and mushed it in just before the rear bend.

No holes in the roof? Use this opportunity to make it look COOL like a ‘73 with no rails. Love that look.

I still have holes up the b-pillars. Didnt realize how rough these were til I lined them up. My guess is that chrome strip (new) is a quarter of a pop can thick.
