andy _1 Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Has anyone ever fitted these. I can't really see what they are like from the pic. I know it says not the best quality, any experience anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snagger Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 They may be a different brand, but I had a cheap set that seemed absolutely fine but had a dark brown tinge, rather than pure black, a bit like liquorice! They’d have been fine if I’d been willing to paint them - they were a good fit and their shape was good. I can’t imagine there are many manufacturers of these things out there, so there is a fair chance they’re the same brand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy _1 Posted February 16, 2021 Author Share Posted February 16, 2021 Thanks alot , if its just the colour I'll paint them . I was thinking the fit was bad or the materials. Thanks Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo Murphy Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 I've read that sometimes the holes don't line up but I don't suppose that's such a problem. Mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litch Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 I would guess that is it possible the material is different. "Proper" ones are flexible whereas I know that in the past there were some fairly rigid fibreglass ones being sold. If these are flexible and fit ok then I think you have a good buy.

andy _1 Posted February 16, 2021 Author Share Posted February 16, 2021 Yup thanks to everyone, I am doing a fully respray just now and the ones I had were fiberglass wide ones and were all broken . These are plastic its just they were saying don't buy if you are expecting to put on a nice defender or words to that effect . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The liquorice set I had were as flexible as the genuine set, as were a pastel greenish-blue Britpart set I had in the mid 90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
