Default Blobeye winglet rubber trim

Ok sooo I’m just having a blob sti bumper re sprayed but the trim that runs round the winglet on one of them
is damaged, from what I have heard the trims are only available when u buy the whole winglet and no
able to buy in there own

Has anyone tried using any others trims that worked out in a good finish, there’s loads on eBay I just wondering
if anyone has fitted a different trim with good results...

thanks

I tried looking for the same bit of trim when repairing a winglet, couldn't find anything but managed to stick the old one back on with Gorilla Glue so it wasn't too bad. What colour is the bumper? If possible you could try some silicone that's a similar colour, its just to fill the gap in.

Totally understandable, you want it to be perfect. Good luck with the search, if I come across anything I'll post on here.

https://www.sealsdirect.co.uk/

They say they can do custom seals/trim, may be worth an email. If they can make it and its successful, they will have a new market!
