I have a full set...

they are all the same, the only difference being the fronts have a small cut out for the body seams.

I am starting to reproduce these arches in alloy, I will be making a small batch to begin with. 3 or 4 sets...

If people are really interested, then I will start reproducing them to order.

What's the expected pricetag on these likely to be?

[tedmcedd]

I will be starting the reproduction of the cosmic arches tomorrow.

I shall post some progress shots.

I have been after a set of these for a while, had some years ago and the 'bend back' properties are very useful. My car presently has 6" alloys (from an imp) and has been converted to later 8.5 disc brakes. The wheels protrude beyond the mini special arches and i don't want to use sports pack as neither look right on a retro car anyway. I am thinking the Cosmic type with seam trim fitted may do the job?

Got a NOS set on the way to me from ebay :).

If they don't clear my wheels they may be up for sale again if anybody is interested.

Any luck with GRP reproductions?
