The black plastic rubbing strips on the side of my old Rover have - or
rather had - chrome strips down them. It was some form of chrome on
plastic and has failed. I thought I'd try carefully trimmed chrome tape
but nobody appears to sell it anymore. Nothing on Ebay and have tried car
accessory shops and Halfords, etc. Anyone any ideas?

I think it was banned from sale for H&S reasons .. least that's what
my mate who owns a Toy / Cycle shop told me awhile ago? ;-(

All the best ..
