I have a saloon back skirt 'reserved'.
If this plan isn't going to take years,
I'm will to lend out my skirt.

Would also save me money, if Anjo then could take it with him over here. :)

As Pete has the moulds for the 5 dr kit, I'd suggest it sensible (if Pete agrees of course... as he is the owner of the moulds) to make moulds of the bits we don't have, i.e the 3dr skirts and the saloon rear.

Mark's (volvofreak's) saloon skirt is the one that goes with my kit, as it came from Steve P's saloon it doesn't fit Fake. I have one of the orig copies as well, and the quality is *very* good, even down to the partnumber showing.

I currently still need a set of 5dr skirts and 2 rears thoughbut doubt pennies will let me get them for a while :(

That's very good news. No part number, and no chance of getting them added to the car's papers in Germany-land ...

As far as I'm aware the 3 and 5 door skirts are the same, but you cut the 'tabs' off the side skirts where the rear doors would be. The side skirts fitted to sliderman's 360 were from a 5 door which Ali had to cut down anyway.

If I had my old 16v one I probably would have liked a kit.
Yes, i've got a guy in mind to do the kits. He makes race fairings for bikes, very good quality stuff and he can probably give me a better price than i'd achive anywhere else.

I'd quite like to get this organised for production in the summer (june-september) as i'll be out of uni then and have a bit more time to get things going.
