boot lid..
Hey,
My car's bootlid chrome strip is badly oxidised. Was wondering if anyone knows where to get one for cheap. Saw one on eBay for 45quid.. Ridiculous price IMHO..

Here's the link.

VERY likely eBay price is higher than dealer.

You can get it re-chromed or powdercoated for less then replacing a new one. Look up a local chromer in your area
