Bert at Berlyn does some at a good price, but he doesn't do a vast range of colours, otherwise it's open wallet surgery at an OPC, but you should get decent discount as a TiPEC member.

I'm sure they are too, Sean. :?: Well they are on mine anyhow.

Try Club Auto Sport Lindsay. They must be able to get them as they fitted new ones to mine when it was resprayed. I've no idea of individual price, as they were in with the total price.

Copy, from Titanic.

The ones for white cars are white material, they come with a minimum of 5 year UV protection, so should last a bit longer than that

But as mentioned before, Really looking for the correct thickness, Don't want to buy 2 x 50m rolls then find it the wrong thickness

Looks like white cars are white & others are clear.

I have a stone grey coloured car and fitted some after market clear guards purchased from ebay - kpporsche. Cost £34 inc. They look spot on and were easy to fit and are plenty thick enough.

Do you mean they are clear if not Silver or white?

What did you use to get the old ones off? Hairdryer or heat gun?

Sorry other way round Zermatt Silver and white are colour matched other cars are clear.

Mine came off with an orbital sander - had area painted.

Used Attenboroughs, they a did a reasonable job - they had to cut some rust from the back of the front wings - will post some pics.
