Does beg the question, why doesn't someone take a mould and make some?

if i could get the exact moulding for them I would fork out & get some made, because they would sell very easily.

Believe after reading the item on ebay, does not include rear flares. So I guess we could spot the winning bidder!!!!

I just rang a local breakers yard and they have none. There is 1 other i'll try later and let you know the outcome.

They have nothing either (in any of their English or Irish yards). :(

thats always a worry, that someone bumps you and then we cant get a replacement part.

Thanks very much guys for your help, very much appreciated. I think if I could get my hands on them I would consider have mouldings done & flogging them !!!!!!!

has anyone tried rimmer bros??? i know it would be a big hit buying new (if indeed they have any) but might be worth a shot. I am lead to beleive that Xpart have stopped all production of the kit now. If this is the case then just goes to prove what a massive loss Unipart was to rover. They still produce stuff for all the BMC cars. LOL

Yeah, have tried Rimmer bros, but nil available.
Proving a right pain in the backside. But thanks for the advise & guidance.

Sammy / Kev / Craig - Do you think Shaun (S18had) could make some? He's a genius with making moulds and stuff...

Hi, thanks once again for your time & efforts on the rear flare search. I tried that salvage company about 2 months ago (old internet posting I guess from tcd salvage). I miss them by 24hrs!!!!

Very kind of you to try for me though...........the search continues!!!......probably find Spock 1st!!!!

Yeah i will. I think I am going to have to go down the moulding route.
Proves how important if you are unfortuate enough to be involved in accident, to collect as many bits as you can (only if safe to do so of course)

Thats brillant guys, thanks very much.....the bloody ironic thing is that white van man hit me about 10 miles from Accrington!!!!!, I was visiting family in North Yorks & then A59 over Pennines to Liverpool.
I am driving to North Yorks on Thursday, so may ring them up & pop over to see them.

Once again, the info from this site is fantastic....thanks
