I am using the Exterior strip which is attached to the front and rear wings of the early VW Beetle, it is held on with small plastic clips.
the self adhesive parts are usualy fitted the interior door trim.

Translation:
The stainless strip that adorns the running boards of the air-cooled Beetle. Available from most any VW restoration parts vendor.

Sorry...Translation: Wing = Fender
Running Board = Running Board

i.e. the strip that runs parallel with the lower edge of the windows, from front to back, the front and rear sections have a rounded end on One end and square ends next to the door shut, the section in the middle ( Door section) has square ends on either end, so I would have had to change both ends.

I did not pick the running board part as (1) it is wider approx. 1/2", which I believe to be a little too big when scaled from the pictures I have and (2) forming stainless is real hard work without splitting it...

Hope this clarifies
Steve

I had been told it was the running board piece but agree the upper belt moulding stainless looks more like the piece.
