Haha, répéré St Ho !

So, welcome in the "French Superformance Owners Club" ... I've got some clear 3M tape on my rear fenders, which are perfect againts stone chips. You can find some aluminum wheel arch spats here (the best is for us to order on UK online shops) :

but it will certainly need some adjustment to fit perfectly. SPF doesn't sell some ready-to-fit fender protection device.

A bientôt pour une petite sortie...

I would think that using a metal covering would, in time, cause additional damage to the fiberglass unless it was applied with a stick tape backing. But that to would be difficult as the exact contours of the fiberglass may vary from car to car. There have been some very nice vinyl or leather “spats” made by a few owners. They attached to the convertible top pins on the top and heavy duty Velcro on the bottom.

Hi Blass.
Thank you for your answer.
Of course, it is necessary to put a soft sheet behind the metal stone protection.
It works perfectly like that on my PILGRIM replica, and on British DAX.
Best regards.

Interesting that I posted this as post #2 which was removed and replaced by yours?

Saint Ho, they're called "spats" and polished aluminum is what you are looking at. You can get them here ...

Hi AL427SBF.
Thank you for your answer.
I have the part you propose on my actuel COBRA PILGRIM REPLICA.
- 1 / The quality of the metal is very poor, and can not be perfectly polished, or chromed.
- 2 / Mainly, the shape does not match with the Superformance Fenders.

Best regards.

Saint Ho.
