Hi,
Which chrome strip (over the flares along the side) does the Aussie GT Clubman have.
The same as the Cooper S or the Skinny over type.
Thanks

Stick the strip in the clothes dryer for a while before you put it on. Makes it a bit more pliable, but work fast, 'coz it stiffens up pretty quick. :wink:

I wouldn't be game to put it the dryer..hot water and/or your mother's/sisters/girlfriends hairdryer also works well..
