Evoque Rubbing strips - TE12BOY - 14-10-2012 03:30pm

Hi, does anyone know or has experience of fitting RR Sport rubbing strips - http://britpart.com/Accessory.aspx?AccessoryRef=1881 to an Evoque? They would appear to provide a good solution to the age old problem of careless drivers/passengers opening the doors of theirs onto yours and damaging them!

Obviously the points at which the front & rear doors meet would good starting points for mounting but would their overall length be compatible with the size of the Evoque doors?

Regards,
TE12BOY

I have never done it, because it looks ugly. I sympathize with the concern though.

That's why I wish LR had provided evoques with air suspension, because that's how I avoided these dings with my sport. I would always park beside smaller vehicles and leave the air suspension setting at the highest height.
