Just put 3M blue masking tape into ebay. There's loads.

It's basically low tack masking tape used to cover plastic trim etc when machine polishing.

Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

Damn this must be well important to ask the same question on 4 different boards  :shocked: :huh:

Not in the mk3 section, though, are you suggesting something?

perhaps we should start a cosmetic/detailing area for people to ask questions like this.

oh wait..
