Hi Ken

I think you would have a lot of trouble painting a rub strip because they are plastic coated foam and semi-flexible.

You would need a specialist paint and bonding agent made to colour match. Very expensive for such a small component.

I suggest with all the scrap yard 928's around at the moment it would be easier to find an exact match for the part you want unless it was a special order paint job?

Ben

If you need Steptoe Watsons number, let me know. At the last count, he had 13 928's in his garden.
