I was looking at a Vitesse at Goodwood an thought they were similar.
Which one is it? I was looking at the rear offside which I thought was too long and the rear nearside that is shorter as it stops at the petrol filler.

No Idea - I bought a job lot off ebay and they all seemed to be the correct length.
I think they were from the front wings, but can't be sure
If they are to long, you can always ''cut to size''

In the end we used a strip that was laying in the garage. No idea what it came off. Jack cut it to length, as we did not have time to find one of correct length. Not ideal, so will look out for one that does fit.

I have a recollection from the distant past that the strip off an A55 bonnet is about 1/2" too short, but otherwise OK.

Of course A55s are not all that common now . . .
The devil is in the detail!
