where are they avail or not?

I've seen some that are a bit smaller which probably won't stand out as much.

You can still buy aftermarket ones

These things are pretty substantial, I've never seen them before. Get the fitted and show us what they are like :)

Cool. They seem quite a bit smaller than the ones in the link though. :agree:

Not keen on the original style wind deflectors. The modern Heko ones like on w35sty's gtt are far better. Beware they nearly come off at 150mph though:laugh:;)

The ones in the link are a bit bubble style looking. :crap: But I gotta say, as much as I like the standard lines, I do like the look of w35ty ones. :agree:

Il get a better pic up of them fitted on my car once I'm out of hospital. They do look quite big I must say, but for 40 pounds new I thought there well worth it :) Just goin for the oe look, I've got the headlight protectors too. I'm on the look out for more extras if anyone has any for sale.

Not fitted properly just a quick pic to show how they look. ;)

What do you think ?

Good / bad ?

There will be some significant wind deflection going on there! :D

I think they might look a little more at home on say a Gordini but yeah I like.

Raider1983
28-04-2014, 16:43
Yeah I get where ur coming from, think I agree with you that they would look more at home on a gordini. I do know they are listed on the 1990 boutique range. I'm im 2 minds if to keep them or not. If I decide I don't want them then il offer them up on here. Or if any1 wants the part number let me know.

Do they screw onto the door?

Raider1983
28-04-2014, 20:32
No if ur looking at the pic I've just placed them on the car for a quick pic.

Raider1983
28-04-2014, 20:45
Just checked now I'm unsure. They might screw into the doors :(

Trevhib

Hmmm, whilst they are quite cool, I wouldn't be screwing them onto the doors.

I'd use some decent black, double-sided foam tape.

Soz I've I've had a proper look now. Not a man look lol. There's clips that go over the top of the doors to hold them on. ;)

Aha, makes more sense :agree:
