substitute for leg shield and floor board trim

[<Theo>]

as above,
has anyone used anything other than standard for this task. I was looking around for some flex tubing or rubber pipping, that sort of thing, what you all been using because i`m getting fed up of looking

I have no idea about the floorboard runners, but I know you can get rubber trim to go around the legshield. What kind specifically I know not, but some kind of rubber for an old Mini fits nicely. It might be something to do with the door, if memory serves. Or, if you're very lucky, I think I saw a scooter shop site or two selling some specifically as legshield beading.

the inside door trim from older tranist vans works fantastic its got steel ribs in it and molds in to place and stops there , or have a wonder round the local scrap yard for boot trim from older cars

You can use this trim for the legshield.

i did think of going to the scrap yard but thought "whats the chance of finding to fit". Srcap yard tomorrow then mini trim otherwise.
An idea wot lenghts the mini trim is??

[<Theo>]

sorry dude, i`l e-mail the mini man for the lenght of the trim

, i sound like a right lazy bastard

[<Theo>]

Brought some myself last year (mini trim). Got the metal ribs if I remember and it does mold itself to the legshield. Makes a pretty neat job for a few pounds

I have some u shaped rubber in black which is about 7 mm deep. Works well and can be run to the back of the footbods under the alloy if required ,I have a roll of it ,so if your mini trim doesnt work give me a ring on 07870305387 and i will send you some for the cost of postage

Thx m8, sounds good but i`ve done away with the runners and put down some checker plate, might still work though.

Just a quick update on the mini rubber trim for me legshields. Got the trim on the scoot and it looks cool, what a fit, amazing .
The only thing thats not so good is that the trim stops about 2" from the end of the footboards . It dont look too bad and if i can find something to cap them off i`l be sorted, any ideas . I`m sure the lammy boys use something like this
