Hi mate

Not 100% on the early FHC but this profile was used on the DHC for front and rear bumpers...around 5 metres is needed...

Part: SRS1913

Early cars use a flexible PVC U section boat fendering/capping, the edge of the bumper and is captured as the bumper compresses up against the shell...it goes hard and brittle over time. A@

My 84 coupe has theTVR-Parts style seal and it looks and fits good.

Does anyone know where the seal that is on top of the door(s) against the glass running front to back comes from?
