Bump strips

Post by LUX406 »

Basically both bump strips on both front doors are coming away from the bodywork.

The drivers side is so bad the previous owner has bodged it with the use of black gaffa tape which looks cack.

Is this a common problem and is it easy to get new clips? (which I guess is causing the problem)

Any help greatly appreciated folks :cheesy:

Only glanced at the receipt and saw the 14p bit, and didn't take notice of how much the vat part was hence, why put it like that

Think it was 30 clips at 14p ( got 6 extra just in case) and 4 501T bulbs at £1.72 and came to £13.06 with vat on.
