I'd rather have it engraved and painted but I'll find out more next week.
Since they are relatively cheap if I get bored with the yellow I can' get another set made up if this works out, once I know what I'm doing.

Okay ordered the new flaps, should get them next week.
Now just need to work out what bolts I need to put them on and if I need to make a bracket on the inside edge. Did this many years ago on the coupe.
Can anyone help with the bolt size needed?
Also why can't this thread be moved to the correct place on the forum?

Just picked these up
They cost $77 to be made, but I'm not sure if they will be any good. The 6mm HDPE plastic is a lot harder than I hoped.
I'm now thinking of getting some of this... I know it's turning out more expensive but at least I'll have some good templates to cut them out with.

I just think the 6mm thick plastic might break if hit or worse still damage the fender or rear bumper.
Yes I know thinner could make them too flexible but the eBay listing are for plastic squares that are made for rally cars and I want a bit more flex so they have some give and don't break the mounting points.
