ABSTRACT:
A vehicle body reveal molding includes an elongated, extruded body portion inserted in a bead of adhesive between the edge of a windshield and a flange of a roof panel. The body portion includes a first leg overlying the edge of the windshield and a second leg along the flange. The first leg terminates in a sloped lip extending from the windshield toward the roof panel and the second leg terminates in a lip overlying the roof panel. A decorative strip is secured to the body portion intermediate the lips. The sloped lip, the outer wall of the decorative strip and the lip of the second leg form a streamlined transition from the windshield to the roof panel.
