Default Interested in fiberglass flares?

Anyone interested in fiberglass flares? I'm looking at making up a set (mate of mine does bonnets etc and is doing a flip front end for a zuk shortly) And if there is much interest we might make a buck/mold we can reuse. They'll be pretty much the same as stock but bigger in all directions and we'll try to make them as flexible as possible (apparently there are resins specific for this)

I should add if you plan to drag them along trees and stuff these would probably not be for you but if you need extra tyre coverage after cutting guards etc then they might suit.

Cheers
Steve

I'd be interested, but didn't respond coz I didn't want you to go to the effort, thinking you had a definite sale. It would depend on looks, cost, quality etc etc. I bet if you made them and they were good and not too expensive, you'd have no probs selling them regardless of how many responses you get in this thread.
