    Hi Guys,

    I'm a newbie to the site. This is my first post.

    Cheers

    Welcome BoraFied
    I suggest you post in the MK4 section - the bora comes under that category and you will get more replies.
    ECS Tuning should have the chrome strip you are after - see link below. Other than that check on gumtree/eBay for anybody wrecking a bora.

      moved the thread for you.
      lots of people want those (both rear doors)
      I was lucky to score one off a car getting parted.

      were cheap as from ECS in the past, but have doubled in price and postage is a killer on such an item.
      I had quotes of about $270 from VW AUS, but someone on here suggested you could get the trim for the whole car for $100-200, something worth looking into if you can find someone else missing a trim from another door and go halves in it?

        Thanks guys,

        I have been looking for someone wreaking a Bora, but as yet no luck.
        Also is it possible to replace the strip on my own or do I need a specialist? Any where I can find instructions, visual instructions will be great.

        Cheers

          the chrome strip is just glued/taped to the trim.
          My biggest problem with getting a new one was getting it off the trim without bending/damaging it.
          re fitting will require some glue/tape and steady hands, maybe some tape to hold it there while drying
