It's a rubber protector which came on double sticky tape back in the 80's to protect the rear from your car park neigbour rear doors when his kids send them banging into your car.
Ahhh right, so I'd suggest as a replacement an evil glaring look daring anyone to even park near you, let alone denting your car with their door. It's something I hate and I've become an expert at warding off potential denters!
That accessory doesn't look big enough to do any good, and it's too high IMO, it'd be ok for doors like 300's where the rear has a higher point that sticks further out due to the arch. It's almost asking someone kindly, if you're going to open your door onto my car, please park correctly so you hit this small target buffer here with the door! It needs to be a long strip! I think it would have killed the looks, but on the later Mk3's I think the door strips needed to be only just below the door crease line, that would stop so many dents.
Yeah, England would be the place for parts then! Could even come along to a V3M meet and make a weekend of it!
£500 isn't bad really, for a clean tidy car, just find out what the vibration is! Never hurts to haggle, especially if there's a cause for concern, or an EU flag!
