Bumper rubber or neoprene trim - where can I buy it from ?

[Sean.Smith1]

C'mon chaps ('n' essess)

Im respraying the front of my Series 2 390, but struggling to find a supplier for the neoprene/rubber trim that goes around the edge of the front bumper.

I am even contemplating making the front end trim-less & fibreglassing it to look loke a 400SE type front end -- what do you lot reckon ?? -- will it spoil the originality of the car, or make it look better. I don't want to ruing my toy & would appreciate some input off you Piston Headers !

is it a no-brainer or what !!!

Cheers,
Smithy

Try Vintage Supplies, North Walsham in Norfolk: they do lots of rubber mouldings etc.

Thanks Gents,

I spoke to John at DG this afternoon & the trim is £4.62/m + VAT, but they don't have any in stock at the moment.
