I don't know how you would go sourcing that product by itself, but many after market flares come with this material:

which you may be able to use to do what you want.

the ones from suzuki are not long enough. i need them to cover my different arches plus they are most likely super expensive and id really rather it in white as i want them to be white and paint on rubber wont last to long.

and i checked out Clark rubber and as stated they only have it in black plus its almost $6 a meter more expensive then copper :O

checked out ebay and cant find anything like it not even in black.

I think you're going to be out of luck. 80 series cruisers used a similar moulding. You would try to get some from a wrecker, but IIRC it's pretty brittle and is unlikely to accept the new bends you'll be asking it to do.

Have you considered white draft excluding material? I assume you're trying to prevent grit getting between the flare and body and wrecking the paint/causing rust?

yer iv had a look into a few things really anything that's a similar or t shaped will work but the only t shaped mouldings if found are way to large.

but yes its for protection against the sharpish plastic and grit damaging the paint and causing rust

Blakey has defender flares on his Jimny so needs lots of it without joins.

They're aftermarket defender flares.

Stock defenders don't have a strip IIRC.

yep i might just have to use some of that foam double sided tape just to stop stuff getting between. and not worry about having that type of moulding. it would just look nicer with it.
