Side strips

Post by s-gx »

Hi had a look on forums and trying to figure out if it is possible to buy new rub strips for the doors on my car as someone has scrapped mine and it looks craps. Some people saying they are clipped in others saying there not and some saying to put new ones on have to glue them instead anyone help me out?

They have self adhesive strips, and yes they can be replaced

Are yours painted or textured?

If you want them coloured, its best to buy an entire new set of the primed ones and get them sprayed up then swap them over

Finally got a reply off local VW dealer said they couldn't get them as it's an older car not as many parts + accessories available [emoji20]

VW Heritage might be able to get them as a lot are classic parts now

Also give euro car parts a try as they are still stocking a lot of this
