Does anyone here have the GM part number for the Pace car roof rails. I noticed the GP store doesnt carry them anymore...and I havent turned anything up on eBay.

If you know of an alternate source I'd like to know.

Thanks guys.

yes there is a guy on CLubgp that is selling like 10 sets of them... http://motors.search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZlowlyfegtp

Wow, he has lot of them.

ya...hes only an hr away from me...if i had the money i would go to his house and pick a set up...

After I just looked them again. He has some few items are already over $100. I know it is rare items but that's insane. I remember I read somewhere someone paid over $200 for that about month ago. I'm sure this item might over $200. It is nice but it doesn't look good on my SE. GT/GTP or Daytona car look better on it.

ya but like you said $200 for USED roof rails are completely insane! i was thinking maybe $100 but not 200

I think you can get em from the dealership.

Nope only the left side is available through the dealer. The right ones are on backorder because of an ordering mistake.

ya but how much is it gonna cost through the $tealership!?

he sure has quite few of them...but I dont want set bad enough for $2-300 worth...espcially since most will have to be repainted...most sets are one dark cherry and one unpainted.

Why do two pieces of molded plastic cost $200? You know that aren't even worth a tenth of that and they're barely noticeable on a car. The price has always kept me away from them.

ya i think those prices are completely ridiculous. haha ya i want a set but no where near that bad enough to want to spend $200 for plastic....

I love you guys...that was my point exactly...way too much for a piece of plastic so I went out today and made my own!


Here is what I posted:

First let me state that this is in no way meant to detur or ridicule anyone for buying or about to buy the GM roof rails. For me there is a cut off limit for silly things and the price they are going for makes me laugh and cry at the same time.

This post is not a spur of the moment thing either. I have been contemplating about what I am going to say for over a year...

I have always been amazed and upset at
1) the amount of intrest in the roof rails
and
2) the amount people will pay for them

So I went to Pep Boys today and searched for something that would maybe replace the GM roof rails without looking shitty.

Well I found it.
1" wide door molding, comes in many shapes and colors including chrome (pretty sure I haven't seen any chrome roof rails yet) and can be painted.

All I had to do was put a 45 degree cut with a razor blade at either end so the windshield and rear window molding fit over the mock roof rails nicely, comes with 3M double sided adhesive built on to the molding. Took me all of 15 minutes to install.

I am still in the testing phase of this so no pics yet, want to see how they hold up durring a hot day, rainy day car wash, etc.

So far I am extremely pleased with the outcome and you can't beat the price (Oh, and the molding comes in lengths of 16', enough for 2 cars so really its only 10 bucks per car if you have a buddy)

I made this post just to explain that there are alternatives out there folks, just be creative!

Do the Daytona roof rails fit on a 4dr?

Yes cause they share the same roof.
