Do I need this bit of trim?

[dunnah01]

Any idea where you lost it,,? I might go looking for it....

It could only have come off at the Super U in Claouey and there was no sign of it there

 

[Scotch mist]

Much higher...

WOW , but it can’t cost as much as my wife

 

[dunnah01]

Forget it and buy another van or find an alternative...

That may be a slightly cheaper option

 

[tofo]

Got a price for this little bit of trim from the front skylight that disappeared whilst in France recently -

It's just a stick on it of plastic- Any guesses about how much Inc VAT?

Any plastic moulders near you maybe worth a try

 

[John and Jo]

I can see a new thread game coming on ....guess how much.

950 euros.

Hmmm, still might be some profit in it if I went over....

starting to feel for you now... I’d seriously look into something else to sort it...

Higher.. and if you want to unclude fitting aswell then the price goes up.

 

[Skyway]

That’s taking the p..s. Cannot cost more that 15 pound to mould

 

[Gellyneck]

If there isn't a plastic moulding company a carpenter may be able to knock up something like it out of timber for you.
Probably able to wrap it in gold leaf as well the way the price is going up!

This would be my way of thinking... I would shape a piece of pressure timber seal it and paInt it..

 

[gus-lopez]

you could have one hand made in stainless steel or aluminium for not a lot .

Ounce for ounce I think it would work out cheaper made in gold

 

[buntyb]

How’s about buying a 3D printer and print one off, probably much cheaper

 

[Ridgeway]

Are you sure it "fell" off.....

I reckon someone has borrowed it if it costs that much to replace

I have had to buy some larger bits of Rapido plastic, basically the three pieces of a rear corner £7,000.

That is taking the pi$$

Now if that was my van, I would make a cardboard template and cut a copy out of standard white UPVC, sand it super smooth and spray it black to match. Then bond it on with black sikaflex

Pretty sure it didn't fall off - somebody knew the value

 

[M-J]

Any cheaper in France?

[Winger]

As TheBig1 says make one or if your not confident get the best craftsman you can find to make you one and fix it proper so that it can’t be stolen

 

[AXO66]

See a 3D printer company.

ps what should it look like?

 

[Just smiffy]

Eh-hem..... I happen to have one laying about in the garage.... I could let you have It for say £500....

 

[irnbru]

£1374 for a guess. Extortionate whatever price it is. Are they wearing a mask?

That is pretty much bob on. You'd need to add fitting to round it to £1500

I'm just going clean off the gooey stuff and get a deflector off eBay for a few shillings

Yaaay Im a winner,

thats a ridiculous price to pay. No way would I buy it, do what others have suggested and make your own.

 

[DiggerJon]

I don't know whether it will help but I found this whilst browsing for bumper repairs to my wagon. They seem to dabble in most things to do with MHs.

Congratulations and very well done - you've got a choice of 2 prizes
1. A bit of plastic trim for a skylight
2. A bucket full of 24 carat gold ingots
Their monetary value is fairly similar so just let me know which one you want.

 

[Skyway]

No way they must have quoted you wrong for that little bit £1500
