Does anyone know were I can get the trim that goes up around the windscreen and door glass front (if you know what I mean!)
Broke a bit of mine today!
Looks like its stuck on.
Will need spraying before fitting aswell.

Cheers

Probably one of the scrapyards like Bell Hill would be a good start or try phoning around the specialists like TVR Power or str8six.

Yeah, it's stuck on with silicon gel, but also got 2 screws holding it in place too. Cost to repair and paint was about £120 if I remember correctly.

You're not alone minkybob, caught the corner of mine getting out of the car (as it flairs out slightly so as to rise over the windscreen top rubber that extends further out than it should) and the top 35-40mm snapped off. Luckily I managed to slide a slip of plastic behind to act as a reinforcement plate and Superglued it back. The join needs a slight fill and paint but has saved the hassle of sourcing a whole new piece.

Good luck.

I think I have a spare Drivers side one from a Tuscan 2. Should be the same as the MK1?
