...so the rails the hold the rubber on my bug are stuffed.

The one around the inside of the engine bay, and under the decklid are majorly vrot, and the valance was pulled out at some stage too.

Has anyone here replaced them before, or even have a clue how to go about it, and where to find replacements - or do I get them made up? :s

Thanks, N.

i dont have an idea, but what about going to a scrap yard and maybe finding one in a way better condition and then cutting it out?

I was thinking about that, but I think by the time you get them out they'll be totally F'ed.

If I don't find them somewhere, and Rui's contact can't help, I may get a nice set of aluminium, or something like that, set made up...not that hard to fab' surely...
