Beetle Wing Beading Roll - Gloss Black (For 4 Wings)

High quality gloss black wing beading supplied as a full-length roll, designed to fit between the wings (fenders) and body on classic VW Beetles. This version features a smooth gloss finish, ideal for achieving a sharper, more defined look compared to standard matte beading.

Wing beading is fitted between the wing and body panel to create a clean visual edge while also protecting the paintwork. It prevents metal-to-metal contact, reducing the risk of scratches, chafing, and corrosion over time. It also helps mask panel gaps for a neat, factory-style or custom finish.

Manufactured from flexible material, this beading easily follows the contours of the wing for straightforward installation. Supplied as a single roll long enough to complete all four wings, it can be cut into sections and trimmed to suit. Small recesses must be cut to allow the wing mounting bolts to pass through for correct fitment.

Ideal for restorations, resprays, or custom builds where a high-gloss finish is preferred for added visual impact.
