I'm sure I have some spare clips , How many do you need?

I think I'm going to clean it all up, polish the strips, get some new clips and possibly spray some dynax in the channel.
Then I'll refit it all together never to be touched again.

Bennyboy, I have a Thule roof rack that doesn't need the strips removed for it to fit.

Oooh! I only broke one, but I'll take all you have please. I'm bound to break more fitting them back on.

Gribble!!

Lovely!

I used Autosol metal polish to remove the gribble. It had just enough abrasive properties to make short work of it.

Then a quick layer of AutoGlym Bumper Care.

yet another spotlessly clean piece of the puzzle

Desperately need to do the same, looks much better Pushki.

And gribble? Sounds like a wizard name. Google says it's a crustacean. This is even more worrying: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=gribble

What games are you playing with us!?

It's one of Paul Bristol's words I think.
I looked it up once and it was something to do with the stuff you find down the back of the seat. Boiled sweets etc.
