ok, bit of a hopes up subject sorry but i read something the other day on samba about fake fiberglass replica arch kits.
does anyone on here know a good glassman that could knock up a set of moulds, i would imagine i`m not the only one that would like a set and i`m suprised it hasn`t been brought up before.
i know fiberglass is pretty naf compared to the proper stuff but at the right price i`d deffo be interested.
what do ya think guys.

Re: cheap 16" syncro arches
You will need to find someone who will be willing to remove and hand over their arches to take molds from first.There have been a lot of people in the past saying that they where going to do this but non have so far.

Re: cheap 16" syncro arches
Lee,
a while back I had a conversation with this company - http://www.threetwentyfive.co.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; - they have a background in fibreglass boats and they already do some VW bits. They showed some interest but I didn't have any arches to offer as moulds. It might be worth you talking to them?

cheers.
there`s a topic on brickyard atm and numbers are being counted for proper rubber style moulded repo arches so if there`s enough interest then we may be able to get them reproduced.
