Giles has finally done it!
What is the price? Couldn't see it.
And what is the front valence?
Cheers Cam

78 pound which is about $120AU.
+ freight. $120 AU is well priced, they need to be painted of course.
Wonder how much the tailgates will end up.
Front Fenders and Valance (skirt ??)

Ok buddys,
Finally got these out and yes they fit super snug - should do as they have been modelled from NOS Original parts ! (Boy did THEY take some sourcing !)
Ok mould company do high end work for new Range Rovers and only work at one high standard level. Trust me (I am a fussy bugger with an eye for detail) these are excellent.

Thanks to Steptoe for postin this up - if you clicked the link and could not see its because the ad ran dry - but its now up again. But see here instead.
The Tailgates are next to do and will comprise of steel inside and hook points so as to be 100% strong and to satisfy all of the people ! It will be a 2 part fusion of steel and GRP to make the complete tailgate.
the view side (rear) is to be modelled from a brand new tail gate (from the USA at great cost ! - and I understand no more left there either)
The shape will be as per factory. Not decided what to trim the top with yet though (as strips are now sold out also

)
I am talking to a Oz based distributor atm so shipping may not be the pitta you think

Hahahaha Jonno ! - nah different pot to fund the newbies ! The GRP has to stand onits own 2 feet. Big investment in the Moulds to cover
![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif)
See here folks - and no price hike (i'm just too kind !)

I was wondering what happened to these since we haven't heard any news in a while. That's a very good price I was expecting more. I'll definitely be getting a pair this year but on that note; how long will these be in production for? will the moulding place make a batch, wait for them to sell, then make anther batch or will these become unavailable one day? Only asking since I won't be able to afford/won't need them until my car is off the road for restoration, a few months from now.
Just a thought, if all the Aus members who wanted them didn't need them straight away we could make a big order and get them all shipped together, save on postage a bit.

Well done Giles did you use the guards I sent you as the mould or another pair?
we need to fill a 40 foot container with guards and valances that would bring the price of shipping down conciderably
