Hey all,

I've spoken to John at Mini Kingdom and know that the new production of flares will be available in a couple of months.
I am, however, hoping to sort something out a bit sooner (so I can drive my Mini!)

Does anyone have a set they would be willing to part with?
(I tried the W&P arches, and they sit a bit too wide for my liking with the wheels I am running - plus, running the chrome side strip will be a bonus with the factory arches).


Cheers
Will

Some good news and some bad news.

Good news is I have a New Old Stock set of wide factory flares with metal backing strips in original box. :D

Bad news is one of the flares is missing. :(

Let me know if they are of any interest and you can have them for what they owe me - $230 plus postage.

You may have more luck finding a single flare on this forum or from one of the Mini businesses (e.g. Matt Read) rather than a full set. I haven't tried. Also, John Smidt may be able to supply a single fibreglass flare to hold you over while you search for an original plastic one.

Update: RHF is the missing one.

I will take the lot if you have the RHF.
