Rain rail
I recently bought a 1990 Miata. The post owner had a hardtop on it and he removed the soft top. He did keep the hardtop and left me the soft top, but the rain rail was cracked and he threw it away. Does anyone have a decent rain rail?
Thanks

Personal experience: I bought one of those economy/budget rails a few years ago when I did the top on my '90. It was already cracked when I took it out of the box, just from the way it had been folded for shipping. Inanely fragile, made of very poor quality material.
I wound up just repairing the old OEM one with plastic glue and an old bicycle inner tube.
This is one part where you need to buy OEM or OEM-equivalent.
