shaved drip rails

Does anyone have a daily driver with shaved drip rails? If so, is there any water leaks around the top of the door?

water can come in because of the curved door/window. best way to avoid that is to make sure you have good door seals, good window seals, and that you doors are aligned properly. hope this helps.

The drip rails are useless in factory trim. Do away with them!!
