1987 ezgo marathon OEM rubber bumper edge trim

[Ogmmj]

Happy thanksgiving everyone!! I am currently diving head first into a total marathon rebuild and just finally got all my body panels off today to start my frame cleanup and paint, also want to start welding new battery tray together.... between all the rust and dry rot today my black rubber edge bumper will not be able to be reused it was cracking and breaking and I’ve read the horrors of people installing ones in good shape already. Thing is I can’t seem to source a roll of it anywhere online... can anyone point me in the right direction to track down some of that rolled edging for the older marathon carts? Can’t wait to join the marathon riders club

If it’s not possible to track down anymore has anyone done any other rubber style edge? I was thinking about using that “U” channel that is used on the inside edge of car doors sometimes to prevent scratches and cracks... but I feel like the metal tabs on the ezgo are to tall to be covered by that without cutting it all off and I would really rather not cut the body up. Would like to get it back to as original as possible. Thanks a lot guys. Will have plenty more questions in the very near future. Going to start sanding and spraying my frame tomorrow with some new black. Then plan on hitting everything with spray on bed liner.
