TheRealExile Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 East Kent out of stock, wonder if they would get some made for a bulk order if others wanted one as a spare/just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessopia74 Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 I always had the bmw one in mind as an option, but reading what Andy had on his FB post it seems that is a poor choice - so I will be having same issue too, or I reskin the roof too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bris jas Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 As i'm sure Andy has tried before, the East Kent trim ones don't fit either as i had to send my last one back, roof wouldn't shut. I'll be having this issue soon as well! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Pounsett Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 Look up rubber extrusion manufactures. Lots have online catalogues and you may find what you want or something really close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
®evo03 Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 BMW E30, would Ford's of the same era, sierra, mk3 escort, fiesta, fit. Is the hatch and coupe same sunroof panel. Reason I ask, both hatch and coupe skin profiles must be the same if same sunroof fits. But the non sunroof panels are so different. I know if you park both coupes side by side, sunroof and non sunroof, there is a world of difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mepbowles Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 I saw recently that there are companies that are 3d printing silicone. If you can send them a sample, they might be able to 3d print you one that would work. In an ideal world, the club would buy the microfilm off the chap selling it and then build cad models for all small parts so they could be easily 3D printed in PLA, ABS or Silicone etc as appropriate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
