Thanks guys...if all goes well i will pick up the car but it needs alot of TLC...it has potential I would say

Depends on whom you ask. On old DSMs, it's called the windshield garnish. It's easy to remove, I had to take mine off to fix my wipers. It's held on with a half dozen (give or take) philips-head screws. Dunno how much a replacement is, but I've seen one on here in carbon fiber.

I appreciate your response to my question! Turns out I didn't get the car I need to the cash for something else, the car is more of a want than a need kinda thing, one day but for now just a dream...
