    Flare Kits

    Just curious as to where you guys think the best place to buy 50mm Flare Kits for my disco 1?
    From what i can see im looking at having to spend around $600 for them.
    If im going to spend that money i would obviously prefer to spend it in Aus rather than from overseas but are unsure of distributors and quality of product.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Thankyou for the advice mate.
    Yea i spotted those polish ones. Not real sure about those.
    I wonder what the shipping time would be from England? Because i was hoping to get them and have them installed by next weekend.

    Has anyone tried out Rover Parts Plus?
    They are selling a set for $555 which can be seen HERE

    Cant find a set of flares in Australia to suit my disco
    Tried the above place and also Les Richmond and a Terrafirma seller.
    So if anyone knows of a place that would have them that is in Aus please let me know.
    At this point if i have to wait a few weeks im leaning towards the cheap polish ones?

    I think there is a place in WA that sells the flexi flares ?

    The flatdog price is 140GBP so add freight and probably looking at around $400 - still cheaper than local.

    Do the FlatDog ones seal up the rear door though?

    Yea i would never go those flexi flares if they are those rubber strip looking things.
    They look cheap and horrible.
    I certainly want the real deal and are willing to pay the price for them.
    Will contact that place that sells the flatdog and see how quick they can deliver them.
    Thankyou.

    They cover the cut but dont fold around like the LRA ones do, i siliconed in a square section of rubber to seal it and used pinch weld on the cut arch section.
