Stainless t top bar

Took out my factory one and although it could be saved and repainted, Im kind of upset it has any rust to begin with. Car was almost always garaged in 50% or lower humid temps. Anyway does anyone have this bar? Cheapest place to get it? Stainless screws to install as mine were rusted too. Thanks

I installed the Hawks Stainless Bar and it was a perfect fit.

Did it come with the little screws to attach it? Mine are rusted pretty good.

Re: Stainless t top bar

I don't recall that it came with screws. I just looked and I just found screws that would work in my nut & bolt drawer. I installed it 2 years ago and I drive this car almost every day about 20,000 miles per year and no leaks. I did use a silicon caulking on the roof where the bar screws down to make a water barrier so there is no water buildup to cause rust in the future.
