Hi,

I will be doing some modding with my other case, so I am wondering where can I get this localy:http://www.petrastechshop.com/neruedtrmo.html

I live in San Marcos, CA in San Diego. Please let me know. thanks

Home Depot or Lowes might have some, but an auto parts store should have it. It's usually used for trim or something of the sort.

Not exactly the same stuff, but, I've seen people using door-edge trim like you'd find at tyour local Auto parts shop-comes in about 2 foot sections!
Worth giving it a look !
Cheers

Thanks friends. I did find the one from my local auto parts store but there are a little stiff to bend and cost about $5.00 for around four feet.

I also looked at home depot, but they dont have it(hhehe, the people I asked did not even know what I was talking about).

same here, i didnt bother with local car shop, i just ordered a 100ft roll :P since in the end it ll save me money, these modding shops charging 1 + buck per ft is getting heavy on me.

Ive been looking for the same thing. No luck at any hardware or automotive store Ive tried. Most of the people there look at you like your crazy or have no clue what you're talkin about. Next is Computer Deli (local shop here), hopefully they have some. From Petras the price is right but the shipping is more than the actual cost.

Yup, that is why I am trying to look for a local store.

i believe that these meassurements match petra's offered molding:

Width (in.):

0.131

Height (in.):

0.160

Panel Thickness Range (in.):

0.036-0.062

if that matches, then you can get a roll of 100ft in Black (solid) from HERE

natural is about the same price and available HERE

Manufacturers informations: Panduit, MFR Article number black molding: GES62F-A-C0 | natural colored : GES62F-A-C

Hope that helps, shipping via fedex ground should be somewhat around 7 bucks since this stuff isnt really heavy.

Cheapest place by far for the bulk roll is McMaster-Carr
Bottom right hand side of front page Edge Trim then pick page #3709
Cheers

[Edit] Sorry Hitman I just checked prices they're about even- stevens

+1 to you!
