Hey gang! I'm new to the club and a first time LR owner. I have the soft wheel arches on my 110 and would really like to replace them with the plastic/fibreglass versions. Anyone have a used set in decent shape? Or even a pair?

Thanks!!

Maybe a picture of what you have would help.  There is only one type of flare that was ever used from Land Rover and they are plastic.  They are pretty cheap new.

I'm thinking you might have meant to say you're after the oversized plastic eyebrows, which accomodate oversized tires. I noted they are in the Britpart catalogue now, and orderable, if that's what you're after. It's unlikely that anyone brought these over to not use them, but it's possible.

Black front plastic ones?

Hi.  Ivor has a bunch of these, but bring your truck, as it was a bit of a gong show trying to figure-out which were the right ones. 
He lives in Sundre (403 638 2189, landy1@telus.net).

I think I paid him $150 for the set.  If you want to come over and see mine, let me know.  They are not on yet, as - sadly - I don't think I bought the right ones. 

You can reach me at 403 852 5670.

@Binch I'm looking for the regular factory ones. The ones on my truck have lost their structural rigidity. Not sure if its from sun or time or both. The ones I'm looking for, as used but in good shape, are - https://www.britpart.com/all-parts/da1059/ or these ones http://www.lrparts.net/standard-defender-wheel-arch-eyebrow-kit-in-matt-black-rivits-afu1075-sold-separately.html

@Already a Rover - I really appreciate this heads up! Are you based in Calgary? I'm still in the UK another couple months before heading home but would appreciate getting a look at yours!
