Estate plastic roof gutter cover

[djsoftware]

During the strong winds over the past few days the plastic cover that covers the gutter on the roof of my estate has blown off on the passenger side ! Has anyone experienced getting a replacement, do you need to spray the item to match the car or do they come colour coded, how much etc. Thanks for any help.

Mine blew off on in torrential rain in Scotland. Cost approx £38 each over a year ago. Not now available colour-coded so needs to be sprayed etc. Mine now have clear silicone at each end to prevent re-occurence.

Why not try your nearest car breakers, you never no your luck, you might even get the right colour. I'm in Northern Ireland and we have a specialest VW car breaker.

Hi got mine from dealer in summer and £40 sounds about right-come in black so you can then order the spray can pack(paint and lacquer)-did on hot summer day and came up ok although I too have silicone at front end to hold down-mine were pinched from wifes work carpark!!

Thanks for the responses - I had already used araldite on the drivers side as the end kept on coming up but obviously forgot the other side. I think I will try the breakers idea first then the dealer. I did have have a look on ebay and saw some nice W8 chrome roof rails which were going for around £60 plus postage if anyone is interested
