Default Where can these 'splash guards' be found ?

I know they are rare but i can't believe these are not produced by others (replica's) since there seems to be a demand and the original ones seem to be extremely hard to find and very expensive.

I looked at ETS Racing who seem to have produced them at one time but they lost 2 of the moulds.

Any help is appreciated.

Yup, that's them !

On ebay i had a hard time finding them, probably not using the right search string.
Feel free to direct me to a link of any Ebay auction or classified on this BBS that could help me find these, it will be much appreciated !

You dont want the ETS replicas, the fit on them was utterly GASH,

Try to source some second hand original ones.

As above, they are rubbery, but they can be painted easy enough.

Thanks for the advise mate !
I will go for the rubbery version if i get the chance to obtain them.
I wasn't aware of the ETS version and the poor fitment. They lost 2 of their moulds anyway so i won't be buying those directly from them.
I will however be aware of replica's during my search.

Question, how could the fitment be that bad ? I assume they made exact copies of the original ones which isn't really hard to go, right ?
