Hi mate

I was after a set of these too, someone emailed me about something unrelated and mentioned he was getting some from ets racing.
They are replica ones but look very good. £70 delivered for 4 and I'm sure they'll fit your car.



email etsracing@currantbun.com

Hope this helps

Question

You'll need a plastic primer first mate. Then (halfords near you?) get some paint mixed to your code (vin plate on rhs of engine bay has code).
I'd offer em up before painting and get some holes drilled in them (if they don't have mounting holes) make sure they fit up nice then take em off and paint away.

Nice 1, got that.
Ive, actually got some plastic primer and paint left from when I colour coded those ****ty orange/indicator inserts in the bumper.
With regards to fitting, is it just offer up, drill holes, attach with self tappers ?

Ta, Rumy.

have a look at the mounting holes for the side skirts, you might find that you could use these holes on the car and just make holes in your new parts (this must be the case as they do these as standard on some sti's so they must use standard mounting points on the car)
