Case mod molding

Where can I find more of that white molding that Lian-Li uses on the edges of their cases? I'm trying to line some holes I cut, but the automotive c-molding that I used to line some of the larger cuts I made (blowholes and windows) is too stiff (even after using a hair dryer). I stole a little off of some other cases I had lying around, but it isn't enough. Thanks.
 
That is the same stuff as the c strip automotive molding I've been using. Unfortunately, that stuff doesn't work well on small cuts.
 
I'm not sure what you're trying to wrap molding around. I used the stuff xBuddhax refered to you on a cut that was 1" x 1.5" with .25" radius corners and it was able (with a lot of effort) to fit smooth.

Anything much smaller than that and I think you're probably going to have to cut 90 and 45 degree corners to make anything work or use large rubber grommets.

The molding from Voyeurmods is not the same chrome molding they sell at auto stores as door molding or that they sell on eBay to trim motorcycle gas tanks, that stuff is REALLY flexible.
 
I haven't tried this on cases but I do use surgical tubing to cover edges on holes cut in kick drums it's real flexible might give it try.
 
Hmm... maybe see if this stuff any better. Guys at MNPCtech seem to use good quality stuff. Maybe email them and ask how flexible the stuff is and if it will work for you cuts/curves.
