the guy who put the bump strips back on my new nova must have been pis*ed out of there heads coz there all wonky.
my dad reckons i just take em of and leave em off but i'm not sure.
i wanna keep it standard as much as possible but still look minted.

what can i use to re stick the bumpstrips if i peel them off and put them back on straight or can you still buy them new?

has any one got a pic of a car similar to mine without the bumpstrips
or can someone do a photoshop please.


cheers

I would say keep them on to break up the yellow and black. They are still availabe but it costs around ?150 to do a full car! As for sticking them back on, why not try the double sided sticky foam pads, like used on number plates? You will need to thoroughly clean both surfaces though

Halfords sell trim tape, its similar to the stuff Chris mentioned for sticking number plates one, but comes in a long roll so ideal for bump strips.

I'd say keep them on, only remove them completely if you were going to take the vinyl off too.... but IMO it looks better with all the bump strips and vinyl in place.
