Hi there,

I'm fairly new to the site and yesterday I decided it would be a good idea to remove the black bump strips off the side of my Corsa and once they were off and I had got all the glue off I realised that the paint colour was slightly different on the bottom of the car to the top but the bump strip obviously made this un-noticeable.

I was just wondering if there was anywhere to get new bump strips from as I have looked on eBay but cant seem to find any?

Thanks,
Ed

Pop down to your local dealership and ask them, can't imagine them being cheap though.

I thought the same, It's a piss take really as you wouldn't have known until you took the bump strips off that the paint was 2 different colours. I will upload some pictures of the car later today once the rain has stopped as I haven't seen any other V6 Corsa's on here yet

There's a few on here as it goes or as said above you could try to buff the dull paint? They look better without bump strips imo.
