Hi all.

Got the buggy stripped down for a bit of tlc and have started ordering a few bits. I can't seem to find anywhere that does a strip seal thingy for both sides of the bonnet. I know a few have commented on this in the past and have probably told me where to get them but I am stupid and can't remember. Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

Woolies trim is probably the best place to start

I went for a very unconventional shape when I did mine, and have to say the results were excellent

If the bonnet's a good fit then regular Beetle wing bead from any of the usual suspects works fine...

"Ah, Beach Buggies, sure, just a quick cheap way of getting a few more years out of a rusty Beetle. You can throw one together in a weekend." anon.

Cheers guys.

Just ordered some wing beading from machine 7.

Hopefully this will stop Dan from huffing at my bonnet  ;D ;D
