Drivers door bump strip

Looking for new bump strip with chrome running along the top for coupe quattro,have sourced 2nd hand one but has been bent during the removal process and won't stay bonded to the door.

These are NLA since 2003 but people still seem to have them for sale every now and then.

If they are bent on removal they will never ever go back on. For future reference, if they are removed using nylon fishing line or similar between the strip and the door so they are not bent, they will go back on.

Some people 'go naked' without the strips which looks OK.
