Anyone know what to call the black plastic strip that goes between the spoiler (with third brake light) and trunk facing the front of the car? There is a 'bead' of plastic that is stuck under the spoiler lengthwise. I suppose to prevent water getting under the spoiler. I need to replace mine as my car is being painted and the old one fell apart.

Any ideas? I tried several searches for weather stripping.

 

Try searching for "P-seal".

Fender welting would also probably work.

 

I appreciate the responses, but I still am having issues. I have attached a picture.

Notice the arrow I drew in the picture. Along the spoiler right there is a very small Hard plastic 'bead' that travels along the length of the spoiler. The piece that follows the spoiler is round (hence why I use the term bead) and has a flat part that tucks up under the spoiler itself. It is not soft rubber or felt it's purely hard plastic.

 

Lon knows his stuff. I know what piece your talking about, but couldn't tell you what its called. I doubt you'll find a new one. might look into making something yourself or search for someone parting out a vert and hope they have one.

 

Glad I read this..I have this seal for my vert I just picked up..the spoiler was removed and sitting in the back seat..I saw that seal and wondered what the heck it was..now I know..haha..thanks

 

So, I still can't find this, however, I found out what the part is.

SPOILER SEAL STRIP - (GM Part# 12331868)

Wish I could find some type of replacement, mine is ragged and just finished a brand new 2 month paint job. Slowly putting the car back together.
