Might be a big ask but I am looking for a finished product.

Doing a semi cosmetic restoration and need to replace all parts of the plastic drip rail pieces all the way around.


Has anyone found alternative materials for the long pieces that run the length of the roof?

I got mine printed through makexyz.com but there are other sites that you can match up with printers local or otherwise to get things printed.

I'm interested in both tips and files if you're willing to share them.
