[DeTomaso] Glue-in windshield and trim gaps

All,

During repairs I added a Wilkinson glue-in windshield to 2511. While I am far from reinstalling the interior, I am checking the interior fit around the windshield which no longer has the large rubber gasket the OEM trim was designed to mate with. 

I had heard about gaps at the top of the windshield, but 2511 has gaps on all four sides. And although the black polyurethane, black sheet metal and black trim all blends together in a low light situation, I do not view that as an acceptable resolution.

My first thoughts are that a black cloth or vinyl covered windlace might be a satisfactory solution but as others have been here before me, I am curious to learn what other approaches have been successfully used.

Any thoughts and suggestions are greatly appreciated. 

Thanks,
