If your contemplating buying the WIDE fibreglass jobbies from the british sporting car establishment in bendigo... give it a miss, they are a terrible product, they do not fit, they fall short, and the overall quality of the flare is terrible!

Please be warned.. as alot of people have told me theyre the ducks nuts... there just utter crap!

Youve been warned!

:roll:

He never mentioned the business name. Just a vague description that could mean a lot of things. :wink:

Simon,,, if you`re keen & if you`re not going to be using them for a while,,, send em up here (i`ll pay freight etc) & i`ll have some moulds done so everyone can get them again

fiberglass would be far better than the original plastic anyways

let me know "K?

Edit--> i have only just recently sold my last brand new full set to Dodge so i only have a couple of odd ones left


Matt I have a set you can borrow to mould off if you want. As long as I get them back, they are the only spare set I have. G.

What would you expect to pay for an original 70's set of skinny cooper S flares ?

I know Link has some narrow ones as our Mini K got backed into last week and broke one of the front Cooper S flares that are fitted to it
I rang Bryan last week and he said he had some and would put one aside for me. Earlier this year I gave Bryan 2 wide front flares I thought I would never use, so I assume he still has them.

We should have another shipment, in about 2 Weeks,
These are the genuine flares Made From the original Tooling.
I have to buy thesof 100 at a time
For the Man Who Moulds these 100 seta at a Time.
This Is A small Qty to the Guy who moulds them for Me
So I have to wait until it is viable for Himj To set up and mould them for Me
Regards
John
