    Replacement trim

    My 1972 has some windscreen aluminum trim that’s fairly worn - and in one part has a crease in it . So I am looking at buying new trim to replace. I’ve searched a bit and it seems these parts are fairly common and available - stoddard, autoatlanta, pelican etc - even porsche classic sells some of them.

    My question is this

    Are there any specific sellers that have a more accurate product than others? Any sellers that folks have been happy with? Or generally are all sellers procuring a similar quality part.

    1973 911S Targa - Signal Yellow
    1974 914 2.3 - Sunflower Yellow

    I think the sellers may be selling the same product . the difference will be if they are handled and packaged well and arrive unbent . The bending creates rainbows you will see in the sunlight .

    In doubt I would go for Porsche parts. Check https://www.sunsetporscheparts.com/ usually pretty decent prices for a Porsche dealer
