I'm after a right front flare for my 93 Feroza.
Have tried calling wreckers - none of them seem to have any.
Called Len Patti Daihatsu - they said the flares are $448.80 each!!
Don't want to blow out half my pay for a bloody flare!!
Anyone know?

daihatsu auto recyclers at archerfield mate... they're in the book but they're gonna be expensive no matter where you go
looked at this for the rocky and decided on rubber

I fairly certain there is some fibreglass moulding place that makes them. Not sure who or if they're for wide track or narrow though....
Not much help really....

do you still have the old rhs flare.
For that price you can easily mold 10 of them yourself from fibreglass. use polyurethanefoam on the old one to make a negative and cover it with glasfibre just as you do with dodgy body repairs

$448.80 stuff that
rip the other one off go down to bunnings and get some rubber and make some new ones, that way if you lose it again you wont have to worry bout the cost.

Google to the rescue- unfortunately they're to suit a narrow track though!

Forgot to say that my feroza is a wide track model.

SXPII in the subject was enough.

Hmm... my partner is a panel beater and he also works with fibreglass... he said he'd be able to do it, but it involves lots of work.

Hi, I am also afetr a flare. Rear (RHS) I have been asking a few wreckers and reckon I might be on to a winner. I have also asked for front right for you. If it pays off I'll let you know otherwise please post a message if you find a Fez with both front and back right flares intact as I would also be interested.

damn, if i had enough materials here at home i would make a mold of mine.
as shezzbeav said, involves some work. but not too hard.
