What do you guys think about this brand? have any of you had any experience with this brand? The door vertical weather strip (rear of window) they show looks kind of rough to me? Thoughts? Is CRC brand better?

Hi j,
I recognize the Steele name from seeing their products at the Carlisle events over the years.
I'm not familiar though with what they make for Corvettes.
I believe people have continued to speak highly of the CRC products.
Regards,
Alan

Hello Alan,
Thanks for the insight. The photos I've seen of your car look awesome, which brand did you use on your car?

I have been to the Steele retail store due to not being to far from me. A really nice set-up and product line that I personally like because I am like a kid in a candy store being able to buy stuff that I know I will need.

The quality is very good....and as for these rear verticals...I have not had a problem with them.
