Bump Strips

b2_sport · 27-06-09, 05:22 PM

I need new bump strips for my Sport, the ones on there at the moment look like they have had better days.

Is this going to be main dealer only... also how to replace them? Do they just pull off, or do i need to release some fixings etc...

i take it the old ones can be reused? what sort of adhesive is recomended?

A good sided double sticky tape by 3 m should sort it but you will have to cut it to fit

or sikaflex I think

SO where can I get bump strips from?

I am guessing main dealer only....

Try the main dealers but I am almost sure they are now NLA. Depending if they are early or late I may have the odd one..... depends on which one you need

I visited local Main Dealer on saturday who told me these are deffo not available! Last time they was available was 2006 and even then they was something like £50-70 each depending on which ones required

Visited Jamil (Volcano RS) on the weekend and he had the bump strips removed from his donor 80 and the doors looks pretty cool without the strips. So I have decided to order a toffee wheel of ebay and Iam going to remove the bump strips as well. Will post pics of progress on this.
