FP3 bumper wanted (France/EU)

Help Fairphone 3
, , ,
1

The bumper which came with my almost-5 years old FP3 is starting to fail, with an obvious crack near the Audio (headphones) port, and some possible wear-and-tear near the USB-C port openings. However it appears Fairphone’s on-line shop no longer offers a replacement bumper (as others on this Forum have also noted).

Any suggestions? Repair(?), an available unneeded replacemet FP3 bumper, or…?

It’s not a major problem yet, but I’d like to address the issue before it presumably becomes a problem.

The phone is in one of Anna Treurniet’s wonderful cases (sadly, she may no longer be in business, having switched professions). My case is designed to work with the bumper. Together, the combination has protected my FP3 very well.

Thanks for any helps or advices! Merci !

Thanks for the heads-up, although I regret that she will no longer offer new cases. A moving announcement.

P.S.: If you don’t find a bumper in France, we might be able to help out.
[UPDATE 7 January 2025: The bumper is gone and now serving on @DH4CK’s FP3 :+1: ]

Hi, @blf ! I have an unused bumper from my FP3 at home (a couple of years of use, but in good condition; I used it until I bought the original Fairphone case).

I’m in Galicia, northwest Spain. If you want it, send me your postal address by private message and I’ll send it to you by regular mail :blush:.

Hi @urs_lesse : I am living in Jülich, so very close to Aachen. My FP3 bumper failed just before christmas so I am looking for a new/used one. Any chance you or the “Fairphone Community Aachen” can help me out there?
Thanks!
