    Availability of 88" front guards?

    I'm considering a rebuild of an 88" series 1, however I am missing a decent set of front guards. How readily available are these?

    Thanks

    dunno anything about the guards, except that they could be hand made if you get really desperate.

    They are available ex UK, a chap in the Series 1 club makes them from scratch, but they are very expensive + freight also I believe there is a waiting list, but it's all achievable if you want them, cheers Dennis

    sometimes I miss things,
    you said you are missing a decent set of front guards,
    does that infer that you have an indecent set of front guards, or more correctly, a damaged set?


    these things can sometimes be beaten back into shape by a clever panel beater that knows how to work aluminium.
    and I believe there is someone on here that has made his own guards.

    Good second hand guards/wings to suit a 88" series 1 are very hard to find it took me years to find a pair that were good and they even need some panel beating with wooden hammers don't use metal ones on the soft alloy.
