You know what mate, if you can find some will you please let me know where... I had to brake mine off my old wings and nackered them. I've tried different types but you need them with the steel strengthening bar on them, because of the way you can't attatch them to the cill, they just hang off and flap around... And you then run the risk of catching your wheel on them and ripping them off.

Hope it's not just me that's had that problem!?

Ps. It's a very nice Coupe you've got there, look after her... And keep her for many many years... Drive it to enjoy it!

Think I've invented me a new catch phrase there lol

these any good

THE FLAP WILL SHAPE TO THE ARCH FRONT AND REAR DUE TO A METAL STRIP WHICH IS MOULDED INTO THE FLAP SO IT WILL RETAIN IT'S SHAPE.

There the ones I tried, you can cut them to shape ok but they are simply not rigid enough, they just wobble around and there's no way of anchoring them properley at the bottom - and on full lock you run the risk of ripping them off and damaging the wing.
