Doesn't surprise me they don't make them anymore :evil: :evil: :evil:

Try this bloke

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/FE-FC-FB-EK-HOLD ... 51906429b9

:roll: His name is Craig Vayne in QLD and he makes a lot of repro panel stuff.He said to me a few years ago that he can pretty much make anything as long as he has a template to go from.

Send him a message via ebay with what you need.
I can't think what to write here so this will do.

Hi Steve,

I tried Craig a few months back and he said he didn't make them.

When I was at Cessnock swap meet, I went to a stall for Betta Auto Rubber, and they said that they made rust repair sections for FB/EK that fit properly, unlike others :wink:

freecall 1800674483

or mobile 0407001007

they were from Queensland and didn't have a website set up yet.

Cheers Rob

Yep, thats jogs my memory, I bought a boot rubber from them at their stall at Cessnock swap and noticed that they carried quite an extensive range of repro parts for our models but I didn't get their contact details :oops: :oops: :oops: , thanks for that Rob :D :D :D .

mudguard rust repair

Post by gandsnewhouse »

I am trying to locate headlight peak rust repair sections for an EK. Rare Spares has advised that itds supplier dosn't make them any more. Can anyone advise where I might get these from? Alteratively where I might get good replacement guards.

Welcome to the forum gandsnewhouse , maybe try placing a wanted ad in the parts wanted section ? Good guards are getting a bit hard to find but someone may be sitting on a pair of the good headlight peaks they will sell.
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.
