Default Beige trim etc

Hi Everyone,
Has anybody got any beige trim parts for sale (door handle surrounds, floor mats etc)? Anything considered really! I have a '92 estate,
Thank you

Hi- uv attacks the beige trim quite badly, you’ll be lucky to find unbroken trim parts intact.

The strongest trim is black, then blue, then beige. An alternative approach (which I have taken) is to buy black parts and spray paint them with the correct colour paint- SEM Camel, the guys in the link below sell it.

Cheers

I used the spray paint without a primer, seems to be holding up fine. That said, perhaps give the guys a call and see what they say?

Cheers
