I like to know too :) I think no one want to make fibreglass copys of their own spats, but I think if someone could do that with good quality there will be lots of people wanting them?

seems crazy that no one supplies these in the UK as far as im aware, but there is starting to be quite a selection of bodykits available for the 15.

I was thinking of doing the same. Been talking to a mould maker tonight.. They only need to be fibreglass.

If enough people are interested..

Would be over the winter mate as I'd need to use mine for a mould. We would need a good bit of interest or the cost would be silly as we'd need a left and right mould.

The brackets are dead simple. I could knock these up in aluminium over my lunch break or send the dimensions..?

unfortunately my access to a metal bender is limited and it would help if I had so existing brackets to copy, but I don't :(

Do the factory brackets get bolted / attached directly to the bar or do they attach behind the bar?

Yhey are rivited to the spats (2 blind rivets) and then are screwed to the bar with a normal phillips screw. I think they attach to something behind the bar that is more solid but will check for you tomorrow as it's cold/dark now! The screw goes through the bar anyway. I had a look at them today and they all appear to be slightly different. If you can wait a while I'll knock you up a set and send them with the cooling panels :)

Yeah, yours are definatly larger than the standard ones. I noticed that the other week. I think your skirts are not the original ones too. They seem more.. chunky!
