Right after fitting the grill and such type brightwork on my minus last weekend the bonnet chrome strip that came with the grill doesn't fit the bonnet!! So at present it's got the one that was on the bonnet when I got the car. It's not in the best condistion and looks out of place with the other new chrome!! (see pic)

Does anyone know what type of strip I would need to buy to fit? Is there such thing as a MK II?? :nugget:

The one thats on there doesn't look like its been modded at all. The newer one I bought is too straight.... ie if you fit the middle screw both ends are about an inch away from the bonnet! :nugget: And no it doesn't bend with brute force either..... :fear:

OK, but If you decide to take my suggestion then (being a friend) I'll be willing to sneak your boogey down the motorway to my house for a fiver and a drink for an old (read overweight) friend!
