Does anyone know if the'rubber trim' that 'snaps' around the front fender shields (front and back shields) of the 64-65 Valiants are being reproduced and who is doing it?
 
Actually Laysons has a rubber strip that I think would work. He sent me a few feet for a different project but I am in the process of doing the same thing. Basically it is a stiff rubber you cut to length.
 
Is the top piece made of material kind of like heavy tar paper with strings in it? Are the side strips the three cornered rubber ones?
I've had great luck dealing with Restoration Specialists so if the parts are correct this would be great info.

Thanks
I used my original top pieces so I don't know what that material looks like. The side pieces are the three cornered style with clips properly spaced for easy installation.
 
I went to RSS. Their seals for the rear shield did not match NOS, but they looked and fit as if they did, and should satisfy anyone except a total fanatic or someone with the funds of a Jay Leno. RSS said they will make try to make front seals from my patterns. Going to give it a try.
