![]() I was outbid on ebay due to my wireless going on the fritz, so recently missed out on the opportunity to get what I need.
This is proving to be a bit hens-teeth, but what I am after is the rear chrome bumper trim strip. It might also/ or just be the square-shaped bit (how about that for a description?) that is required, but either way it is NOT the rhs or lhs strips-just the rear. Any help/heads up would be most appreciated. I just want my car to look the way it deserves to. |

![]() Hi Doug.
I would suggest you try one of the cars being broken for spares. I have bought a couple of parts from one seller on ebay (mtd584) and he has been excellent. One or two other members have also used him and reported a good experience. He has 2 75's breaking at the moment so why not drop him an e-mail to ask if he has the chrome trim you need? (PM me if you can't find him on ebay). Regards Derek

![]() Sorry, I forgot, always worth checking with Les at SMC, always seems to have most things (although not listing rear chrome at the moment).
Again, I have had some bits of Les and as with numerous members cannot recommend him highly enough. Derek

![]() Thanks for the replies. I've contacted that eBayer as recommded-fingers crossed!
I've dealt with Les a couple of times now and he's been superb. No rear chrome trim at the moment though ![]() |

![]() If you fancy paying £60 + VAT they seem to be plenty about new at X Part dealers.

![]() I have got one on a car out the back but it has a small black mark on it, not sure if the chrome is damaged or it will polish off, I'll try later and if it's any good I'll let you know
