beetle kammback

I sent a PM to swami salami (AKA dieselbeetle ) to see if I can get his pics for a reference.
I intend to make a finished product, possibly a mold that can be used to make several of them.
As they say, the devil is in the details. I can clip on the edge of the window glass as others have done, but the tricky area is the roof gutter and how to transition over that. If I don't transition outside the glass to the hard corner of the C-pillar, I feel I will be giving away too much gain.
That hard corner is certainly a "bad thing" that could use some kammback sweetness.
