Stainless spats

[Rossba]

Does anyone know where I can buy the stainless steel spats for the rear wheel arch to stop the stone chips?
Every where I have look don't seem to make them anymore.
I tried DRB but they are only making fibreglass ones now.
Starting to look into clear vinyl wrap now. Would be good if the vinyl came in chrome.

Cheers

There you go Ross!
These'll cost you 186 quid, that's about $315 in our money plus say $80 shipping so about $400 landed. 200 bucks a side and the ad says they have manufacturing blemishes because they're hand formed and they may require trimming to fit your particular car. Ready to break out the Wiss snips? And the blemishes will give them that nice pre-dinged look. Still want 'em?

There's plenty of vinyl-type stick on stuff these days for what you want.

Cobrajames -- no disrespect but UK goods can be prohibitively expensive by the time they make it down here.

Vinyl can be done in a chrome look or brushed alloy or brushed steel look.

We fake many things on these cars.... Why not fake spats as well. At least the fit with wrap will be near perfect.

There are some on ebay at the moment £140 (dont know shipping cost) look under Dax kit car parts, regards Sam (UK site)

Ross there's a bloke in Lilydale with an English wheel and the required skills. I don't have his name but I can find out. I'll be going that way eventually in stainless.
