I got some rubber mouldings from CCI a few years back, was at one of their show events they do (Mild to Wild etc.) as they have hordes of spares in the big ol' warehouse they have there, not cheap though I think it was £30-45 just for the front wing section

Worse case, im going to try and make some with my body shop. They are just metal with a film over the top.... how hard can it be?

Hi,
You could make a fortune remanufacturing the side mouldings for other people.

A nearly full set sold on Ebay last month for only £71.

I did make enquiries some time ago as to getting them remanufactured but the tooling costs were going to be pretty expensive and I couldn't see there being the kind of demand for them to make it a worthwhile option.

Hi Martin,
It's a pity the numbers of cars just isn't there to make remanufacturing of parts a viable proposition.

Martin, how was you planning on remaking them?

My idea was to get some sheet metal, get it in shape, then wrap it with the material
