rubber welting for flares/wide guards

[phillay]

hi guys

 

I have 6 meters of rubber welting that is used to mount the guards to your car to give it a better finished look. they sell them for $8 a meter.

 

happy to sell mine for $30 + postage if required.

 

pick up in Cairnlea, Melbourne

 

6m is enough with maybe abit to spare for 1 car.

How much for postage roughly?  If its cheap i'll take it.

[phillay]

$0 for you? i still owe you $11 for the other stuff with e-go? i think it will fit in a bag as a small parcel or something

[Deus Ex]

Yeah that's cool, i'll take it and we can sort the postage out later.  Send me a PM with your Bank Acc details here or on PF.

I'm desperately chasing some of this.

 

Where did you get it?

 

Local rubber suppliers don't have anything that would do the job.

 

Thanks

clark rubber, it's number 17, it cost $7 a meter

Coach builders, Motor body builders, Vintage car restorers, should be able to point you, if Clark rubber doesnt come through.

We used to have a business in Qld Qld Rubber Supplies, ?, that had full kits for all kinds of cars, now no longer.

Also try Rare Spares?

Id been into clarke rubber but drew a blank. Ill try again #17.

the 2 clark rubber I've been to in my life they both had a wall of rubber strip products and there is a chart with about 40-50 varieties. They call them car guard liners, there are only 2 that would have suited one is about $18 per meter and one that is 8, the more expensive one wouldn't had suited for what we use on our cars. from the side it looks like this:

the "O" is the part that sits above the flare

 

[dat2kman]

Thats it.

I use that, the O bit is about 4 mm diameter.

To make it curve, cut slits in the flat bit, or cut out triangles of the flat bit.
