    C2 Coupe Windshield outer corner molding

    I need one of the outer upper corner moldings. I see that Paragon and other sell a reproduction part for around $40. I have also found NOS at Rowley Corvette, but they want $89.

    Has anyone used the reproduction piece and was it acceptable?

    I do not know Rowley Corvette, have never done business with them, so I'm a little hesitant to spend $89 for an NOS part. I've not had the opportunity to compare a reproduction to an original from my car.

    anyone know the difference between the reproduction and an original/NOS piece?

    Thanks,
    Don

      Thanks Mike,

      That's part of my issue. Their websites says "On our shelf since '85. We have several more without the box. Guaranteed Authentic and as represented".

      I just don't have any background with them. Not saying they aren't trustworthy. I'll call and see if they still have any in unopened box.

      thanks,

      Don

          I agree. As far as dealing with Rowley's, I haven't bought from them since the 70's but never had a problem and they've been around longer than most. They must be doing something right.

            Thanks Jim,

            I don't have a problem paying more for an NOS part, just trying to make sure I get what I pay for. I'm giving them a call today.
