allchevy Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share Posted August 4, 2010 were you happy with the kit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monte70car Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Yea I was happy with the kit the only issue I had was the hood not sitting right as my kit came with the hard rubber cowl seal. The only seal you need to buy extra is the hood to cowl and in your case you would need the one for the Chevelle for your custom hood;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monteman1971 Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 I've used the Softseal and the Metro stuff as well...both are about the same...never had any problems but I liked the Metro "above the door glass/ upper channel) weather strip better. The angle was better and fit better where it angles down for the front pillars. The Softseal doesn't really have an angle built in it for this spot. My 2 cents, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7tonemonte Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 I used the Metro on my car,had no issues with it really. Once you get everything sitting good in the car,and all adjusted its fine.There is a TON of adjustment in the glass though. If I hit my windows with a direct spray it will let a drip or two in, but thats most likely just an adjustment issue. My car wont be seeing too many automatic car washes though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allchevy Posted August 16, 2010 Author Share Posted August 16, 2010 Nice and soft. doesn't seem to be as beefy as I remember on the ends. I also got the window felts they are very nice. had to redrill a coupe of holes and work with the rear a little bit to fit the way I wanted. Haven't started on the door panels yet, not sure how they will staple to the old panels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirdMC Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I need the trunk seal for mine. I know OPG has it, I just hate to pay more for shipping than for the part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allchevy Posted August 17, 2010 Author Share Posted August 17, 2010 I've got an extra trunk seal from them that I'm not going to use. PM me and we can work something out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbolt Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Does anyone have a source for the seal that mounts to the rear of the hood? All I can find is the one that mounts to the firewall, not the hood itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jared Richey Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I used Metro SuperSoft on my car as well. I ended up with Repops window felts for my beltline trim, and they flat out sucked, but thats what they had there in stock, so I went ahead and took them. I got all that stuff from a local place about an hour away, named Kimbrells' Paint and Auto, its in Boiling Springs, SC. Its a family run business, great people all around. They gained a lifetime customer for their niceness I can tell you that. Otherwise I would have gotten it all from Leo, but I would of had to pay shipping. I would much rather buy the stuff from smaller operations like Leo or this local place, they ACTUALLY CARE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
