Gees thanks guys - your kind comments are making me blush !

More info hopefully over the weekend. Considering fitting a pair to Hatchy instead of steel ones !
And yes I do need to sell quantity - as the moulds were not for free !

Need to add that production panels will be in primer grey colour and not black (as the first off pictured is)

Ok Scooby folks, Managed to literally 'throw' the first sample fender onto the modelling car today, and spent virtually no time whatsoever fitting ! I am very pleased with the fit and finish of the product so far ! I have loaded up a number of images so you can see just how good the line fit is. Sho...

Andy please pm me your contact email to use during this time - Thx
p.s did you post me the pipe ?

Lookng very good. Might make my life easier when I get to the finishing stage with my car and have to widen the arches to fit the WRX gear under it. Probably 18months - 2 years away from that though ;) I can wait !........................................................................................

Amazing, just brilliant :) Looks like they fit amazingly well. I see no mounting holes in that first off, will they be put in or does the customer do that? Thanks ! The fixing holes are actually clearly marked on the mould from the original (new & genuine) Subaru fender and will need to be drilled ...

Weight comparison ? - Will report back on this one. Nice pics of the dark there Giles. Humm and only 5pm too :( If you guys didn't chuck so much salt around your cars wouldn't rust anywhere near as much :) If we didnt chuck the salt about then we would be bending parts due to slippy slide accidents...

Ok so it was dark and wet and it was only a quick look see operation, but the initial assesment is good - infact very good. Apologies for the picture quality though. The "model" car is a MY series GLF-5 1600 Sedan bought partly for this purpose. (also the quad lamp slam panel for Hatchy - then to be...

Right more progress today, we have the first off (RHS) wing completed. VERY pleased with the finish and shape we have. Although we will need to make minor adjustments to some of the fixing tabs landing lengths to ensure the best fit possible. Here are some images to get your teeth into. http://i1216...

I guess any Brumby tail gate is gonna need an internal strength between the hinges and the stay bracket points at the side to at least withstand an EJ motor and owner standing on it :D Steel insert it shall have indeed !: mrgreen: Nice work indeed Thank you ! :D Design engineer ?? I thought you wer...

Word just made it around the globe to the UK !!
(Make that OS - Overseas Jono !)

Nice One Jules - but 45deg is cookin' still you will strip off some liquid in that heat !
Hope it all goes well for ya - just think of the $$$$
The projects with funds - can be boundless !

Ok Guy's I can now report to you some progress ! Have just been down to the GRP / Composite factory. Here's what we have so far This is the completed mould for the driverside (or RHS) front wing / fender. The black colour is the inner face of the outer coating of the first wing to be produced, they ...

all brumbys came with a heater from factory, some were actually fitted with power steering (factory) and aircon as well (aftermarket through the car dealer) Im still looking for a picture (there is one on the board somewhere) of the aircon button installed on the brumby dash. TOONGA Here you go :) ...

Looking good ! The engine is ''easy'' to fix compared to a bad body so you are on the easy side here with this car.
Keep the images coming

Ugly duckling !
At least the Brumby had (still has) good looks !
Thank god Subaru UK didnt import any here !
