I sent an e-mail but was bounced back. I tried a few other random addresses at the .it and .com domains, will see what happens.
I guess their English is ok, but does anyone speak/write Italian just in-case?

They'd need some modding for you guys with steel bars.

I got a reply

Hello Dave,
production will start in about thirty days, and we are reaping the pre-orders.
If you are interested we contact you short for costs and photos of the finished product. Ok?
Thank you

I had pretty-much the same reply.
They were a big vague about the material though, sounds like we'll find out more in ~30 days... it's in my calendar.

SRT8 flares on the way from NZ!
Missing a few pieces which I'll keep searching for, or try the dealer at their insane(!) price.

I have a few connections in different types of forming, so I'll start with prototypes of a small piece when they arrive, and probably pass around a couple of you guys for feedback.

Got the SRT8 flares
They're more complicated than I expected.
Sit slightly inside the guard, with a small lip that fixes (just with tape) to the inside of the arch. Effectively shrinking the wheel opening a bit.

The rear ones would be rubbed or pulled off with my setup during flex. Probably the same for most of you.

Best if I can figure out a way to reproduce them without the lip so they're side-mount only, nothing protruding into the wheel well.
It'll be tricky because they're profiled to fit the lines of the body perfectly within a slightly smaller wheel opening.
