Chrome self adhesive tape
 

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?

my mate who owns a Toy / Cycle shop told me awhile ago? ;-(

Try a scooter shop(Vespa)? these have all manner of strips for the edge of
the panels on the bike.
Other than that a scrapyard.

That looks useful (flexible chrome trim in half moon shape) - although
I'll have to wait till tomorrow to measure up.

Thank you, Sir.
