Looks very nice, but my concern would be what happens when the hood is folded.
That is why the seals are separated above the window (above the red seat stripe in your last picture).

Hi.It is no problem,because the rubber is very soft and the adesive is very strong.But i'll be sure in the next summer!

I suppose you could try cutting the strip in line with the original break.
Could you let us know where you got it from Marc, as there is a Welsh S2 with an indoor swimming pool which may benefit.

marc33 I used a simliar material on my a post seals....but it broke up in less than a year.
It was just too thin a coating.
I could do with knowing what the material was that you used.
I have seen some advertised (sold as sheets though not a strip)
Iwill try to remember where it was
