Posted: Wed Aug 12, 2009 10:48 am
Hi All,
I have been enquiring about flairs that I bought from SMTP products in America for the Sportage, that were actually made in Australia by someone, through this company http://www.bossproducts.net.au/.
I have recieved an email off Trevor and he was not involved with making these HOWEVER!! this is his reply to my email.
"Hi Chris,
Thanks for the inquiry.
Sorry we do not make this flare.If you feel there is a market for this
or a wider version please let me know.
Regards,
Trevor

For those who are not sure of the flairs here are a couple of pictures.
COUPLE OF PICS FROM MEMBERS OFF THE 4x4wire forum.
So, who would be interested in proper moulded flairs for their Sportage??
At this stage obviously there is no pricing etc. If the initial interest is not there I will not pursue it. Please spread the word to all sporty owners.
For those guys who have had the smtp flares on their Sporties, feed back please especially on width and fit. Can't remember who owned the red sporty with flairs fitted but would definately love some feed back from him in relation to his flairs.
So come on what has everyone got to lose. Here is an opportunity to to get something there has been a fair bit of discussion on in the past.
Cheers, Chris :
