What kind of cost are we looking at? Will need new ones on mine at some point this year.

A lot more than new ones from TVR Parts but given the work involved the cost is understandable but still £ouch x 3. So very £ouch! They were the same as the cost of refurbishing the old ones which I think is on the website. The guy is away at this week but back next if you want to give him a call.

Very nice! .... cool

Look smaller but is that a "trick of the photo", didn't you say you'd had them made a smidge larger to cover any marking in the paint from the old ones?

0.5mm added to the perimeter all around. Eg. originals were 34mm high, new ones are 35mm high. Each 'bar' and 'trough' are proportionately larger as well to compensate and keep the thickness of the edge the same. Also, the front edges have been polished to disguise the oversize. So it worked then? laugh
