2009 373 Rub Rail Replacement

Post by Spy Sea »

Any help on this is greatly appreciated!:

Our 2009 373 made unfortunate contact with a bridge piling while being towed and flattened the rub rail:

I'm looking for a replacement but am not having any luck, no vendors/manufacturers have seen this type of rail:

Have you reached out to the Cobalt factory? Perhaps send the pictures to Taco Marine and see what they say?

If no luck there maybe a body shop could restore your rubrail.

Both Cobalt & Taco both got back to me today, and they tracked it down: Our rub rail was discontinued in 2018 :(

Restoring the existing one is an idea, may have to go that route given the lack of flat-backed rub rails that are manufactured today.
