those rails cost about $450 each. Very...very expensive. The whole headliner doesn't need to be removed to replaced...witness...by the fact that I didn't need to. That last piece isn't separate...it is all one piece.
Cheap solution:
- pay a body shop to polish rail to blend in the scratch.
More expensive solution:
- Buy a new rail via shokan.com. Call their 1800# and ask for Jon. Give him the part#'s etc. FYI - they may charge you $200+ for one rail. Have dealer install for you.
I'll email you another cheaper source.

Putting bolts back in at c pillar with those hoses in the way was the biggest pain for me. I keep
starting to crossthread the bolts, and the fact that you needed to use a 1/4 drive socket to fit through hole at front to unbolt/tighten rail.
