Hi, i am looking also for fan parts. If anybody knows, that would be awesome!
Is this strip tape or it metal? Is there replacements for it? I habe been trying to find it but I can only find tape as an alternative to this part.

Ok and how do you reattach it when you're done? I mean is it glued on or how does that work?
