Beetle Wing Beading Roll - Black (For 4 Wings)

High quality black wing beading supplied as a full-length roll, designed to fit between the wings (fenders) and body on classic VW Beetles. This trim not only enhances appearance but also plays an important role in protecting your vehicle’s bodywork.

Wing beading sits between the wing and the body panel, creating a neat visual separation line while also acting as a barrier against dirt, moisture, and paint damage. Without it, metal-to-metal contact can lead to scratches, corrosion, and poor panel alignment. This beading helps maintain a clean finish and preserves your paintwork during installation and use.

Manufactured from flexible material, this beading is easy to shape and install around the contours of the wings. Supplied as a single roll long enough to complete all four wings, it can be cut to size and trimmed to suit your vehicle. Small recesses will need to be cut to allow clearance for the wing mounting bolts, ensuring a correct and secure fit.

Perfect for restorations, resprays, or replacing worn or brittle original beading, this black version offers a clean, subtle factory-style look.
