Hi all, I've got a 2005 Series 100 that was originally sold in Georgia. My understanding is that a lot of LCs brought into the country through southeastern ports were fitted with a fender flare kit like shown on my LC here.
Those gray plastic fender flares are not really "factory", but (from what I have researched) were installed either at the port, or at the dealer. So, anyway, last year I had planned to take them off, but when I removed them, the paint fade was so noticeable I decided to leave them on. I had the flares repainted, since the gray paint was failing badly, and I reinstalled them using a rubber fender welting roll I bought on eBay. Well, now a year later that cheap-ass rubber has shrunk and looks like crap, so I want to redo them.
Finally, here is my question. Does anyone know a source for the correct rubber parts for this kit? My local Toyota dealer was no help, as usual. Any pointers would be appreciated.
