Those are called "Dew wipes" I believe and there are threads covering the replacement of those items. I also just checked out your bird.......Nice and clean looking :D

When I get home I will let you know where to get them, a freind told me they are making them for our cars now. Its called 'Steel strip" or something like that. He had them on his 86 TC and they looked perfect.
