Windshield Header Molding

Short answer: Starting in 1968, federal safety rules required the convertible windshield header molding to have a dull (anti-glare) finish on the driver-facing half (the outer side stayed bright chrome). NOS examples have a sprayed-on dull finish (some describe it as bead-blasted/brushed). Reproductions are all bright chrome with no dull finish. It’s held on by trim screws.
