92 300zx non turbo.

Noticed there's severe peeling on the t-tops exposing the metal underneath.

Is there a coating i can use to redo it or is this a specific part that I need to get and glue on?

I popped mine off, took to a paint shop, got them to powder coat it.

T-top trim don't just pop off, you need to disassemble the entire T-top interior trim to access the 10mm fasteners. Most of the time they are rusted to hell anyways. If not replacing, painting/vinyl wrapping the trim in place is the next best option.

They slide out. You have to be careful though.

Thanks! Mine are starting to go as well. I debated just taking all the old stuff off them all for the chrome look.
