you can't; as far as i know. if you look at the glass from the top down, you will see a thick, black border around the transparent part of the glass.

THAT'S the moulding as well. it wraps around and under the glass. you can try to do it yourself but you'll end up cracking the window. the easiest and cheapest would be to see if a glass shop can do it or honda. otherwise you need an entirely new window.

Faded Vinyl & Rubber

you can try some of those products. i was going to try their brand of Molding Renewer but i ended up painting the rear side windows instead.

i've read good things about them but its up to you. however, any of those products restore the color but not the shine. so if something was shiny, it wont make it that shiny again.
