This strip bonds the front fender to the hood surround and is used with multi-piece front ends. This strip is the piece behind the fiberglass that holds two pieces together; it is the long section that runs along the front fender, extending from the door to the front corner of the nose.
Bonding strips join adjacent panels together to provide firm support and a larger bonding surface for long-lasting repairs. These strips are manufactured to OEM specifications and contours for easy, factory-correct installations.
