It looks like this will be the only run of the t-top drip edges with the company I found. I just got word that they will be closing the doors as of the 31st. I'm trying like hell to get more made, even a smaller batch, even if it's at a higher price. The cost to make these was reasonable only because they had a profile really close to the originals with only a small modification needed to be made. With 2/3 of the first order sold it does not leave enough to go around! I’ll keep you guys posted.

They can not make any more drip edges for us. So what's left is it.

Tim, thanks I got my order fine. On my car, I have one side with an original drip edge but the other side was missing. When I compare them, the ones you sent are shorter and end before the quarter window, while the factory one goes all the way to the end of the rear of the t-top. Why is that?

Each and every one that we got was inspected and are the same length as the OEM ones I have. 16 7/8 +/- 1/16 is the correct length. My guess is that if yours are longer because someone may have used (when they were available) a Camaro drip edge and cut it to what they thought was the correct length. Also the non- CJB kits used ones that were cut to fit buy the installer and may not have been cut the correct length, I have seen this many times on t-top cars we have parted out. 16 7/8 +/- 1/16 is the correct length. If you’re not happy with the drip you can return it if it has not been used.
If you have any questions you can email me at tim @ fieroparts.com
