What is this part called?

It is the sticker that goes on the wing to protect it from your scratching shoes. Any idea where I can purchase? thanks :oops:

Hello,

Are you talking about the grip? Usually its sanded-painting from 3M.

If it's not that part, I'm sorry.

I used myself a transparent film (stone-shipping guard) in PU that I buy from a company called HEXIS (BODYFENCE film).

Arnaud.

It's wing-walk. Diamond used to supply stick-on parts (one for each side). Yours is old enough to have had one. In any case the part itself comes from Diamond. Other replacement approaches have been discussed at great length in different discussions here in the forum.
