Can anyone recommend where I would get a stainless steel strip for the rear bumper, the kind that is to prevent damage from loading things into the boot or prevent scratches from dog jumping in/out.

Car is an Octavia 2 Vrs estate pre-facelift(2009)

I've looked on e-bay* but would prefer a recommendation (and maybe a picture?!!) from a like minded enthusiast.........you know how it is!?

 

Cheers in advance.

 

John.

I went for the Milotec one via Superskoda for my Scout estate. Available for the vRS too...

It hasn't budged, scratched, marked or deteriorated in any way in the last 6 years...

I went for a stick-on black plastic one. Not overly cheap and been biffed a few times to protect paintwork. A good idea. Now fading but more subtle imho than a stainless one. Personal choice indeed.

Cheers.
