Why do some of us leave the windshield in? I can't understand not removing the windshield while painting. How do you assure yourself that no problems await without taking the windshield out?
Is there windshield rubber available. I want to show the car. Thanks Gene |

For me the big reason is the damn metal trim. Once you remove it to get the windshield out it is next to impossible to get put in back in place without it being bent. It just won't fit back as flush against the glass again. Ofcourse if your metal trim is not in great shape to begin with, I would put new metal trim when the windshield is reinstalled. I do hear, however, that the trim pieces are no longer being made, but I gotta believe someone like AA can get them for you.
