Well the rear lower trim (+ clips) was about £70 a few years back when I had my respray. Think the front (plus clips) is about the same. Hope you find a decent spare to get one from - there are alot of ludes breaking on ebay, you should find them if you're not too fussed about condition?

Rear windscreen trim Honda Part No. 73251-SS0-000
As Nuke says, it was just under £70 a couple of years ago.

mmm ive got a spare one here with the clips fitted but i was never sure about fitting it
reason being the one thats on the car has a chrome coating-but this has started to flake so i just painted with black hammerite - the spare i have doesnt seem to have any metal coating and is just black plastic and rubber do you think it will be ok to use?
here is a pic of it:

The rubber coating is what it's supposed to have. That's the outer layer and what usually perishes revealing the silver metal beneath, which obviously then corrodes unless treated.

If what you have there is an intact, non-perished, rubber-coated seal, then what you have there my friend Nick is rockying horse pooh

hmmm you sure there arent strips with a chrome coating then rubber then metal - there must be or wtf has happened to the rubber top coating on the one on my car? that would mean all top rubber coating has come off revealing the metal strip underneath which is corroding and flaking off...now im worried

This picture from yours above is all I know the strip should look like of top...

Take a picture of the one fitted to your car. I'm intrigued.

mines rubber, supose its likely there are different types (styles) it is just a strip afterall. maybe chrome is aftermarket as the rubber eventually perishes (unless you coat it in silicone like me

)

From what I remember when I bought mine, it was just painted metal with a rubber strip attached that hid the fixings.
