 |
|
Hullo
Just wondering if you can still buy the chrome strip for the E series?
Rang Ford and they just said straight out it was obsolite 
Also can you get those little bottles of touch up paint? (in my case polanisan Green) ?
Thanks |

Yeh, there was someone selling lengths of it for a while but I cant see any on there
Apparently you can get it from autobahn but closest one is 160K away  |

umm, 5mm wide is way to narrow for an ED. Need to be more like 12 or 15mm.

| you can buy chrome strips from autobarn... they are about 6 mm wide but u have to cover the top half of the strip first and then cover the bottom half... its $11 for like 5 or 6 metres and ull need two rolls which will do the whole car |

Ive got a roll of it... well half a roll.
Bought it for my EA fairmont, only fits the front and rear bumpers, the stuff on the side of the door's are a stick on.
PM me if you want some, we'll sort something out. |

I have seen one guy actually stick the mould over the top of the mould on the door trims. It looked good, just protruded a couple of mil.
