If you mean the windshield frame, they can be replaced, although it will be a very labor intensive project. Several forum members have done this and I'm sure they will check in with some info. Craig

Thanks for the info, but my main damage is on the bottom and the bottom sides. This really has me worried due to the favt i see NO replacement parts offered anywhere to fix this area. They are all for the tops and sides.
