Nope....
I found the last at Super Trim in north Coburg Victoria.
My advice is grab the yellow pages and start ringing. Its Nylex green trim, hasn't been made in 40 years..

Cheers Brett

There is another option.. There is a company in the usa that would make the vinyl. But I would hate to see the cost... Just keep ringing around is my siggestion

Another option i have seen is vinyl spray. they took a whole roll - correct vinyl wrong colour - and colour matched & sprayed the whole roll before using it.

Note this was a professional trimmer spraying not a rattle can job.

I was amazed at the result. you couldnt even scratch off the colour with a sharp blade.

Yes its me. The trim is slightly different colour and grain. But looks great. It just depends if you need a concourse car or not
