ABSTRACT:
An exterior molding, also known as lace, placed around a fixed automotive window, such as a windshield, for channeling fluids along the sides. The molding comprises a first segment extending continuously along the top and sides; two identical segments extending along the sides only, secured to the first segment; and two identical mirror image segments around the upper corners of the window which are beneath the exterior and which provide transitions between the first segment and the side segments. The side and corner segments contain grooves which serve to channel rain and window washer fluid, and are secured together with the first segment to form a unitary molding having a smooth, continuous outer appearance.
