Elan S3 wheel arch repair sections.

Hi all,

Prior to my ownership my s3 had s4 arches grafted on and then painted in Sprint colours. Now many years later I want to take it back to original and I am looking for all 4 wheel arch sections.

It’s a long shot but if anyone has some available I would appreciate it. I’m in the uk so probably not one for our friends across the pond. I’ve contacted Boss motors but their production schedule is way too long.

Thanks for looking

Kelvedon has a pair of fronts in stock but look to be out of stock for the rears.

SJSportscars shows front and rears. No mention if they are in stock.

And this is why I needed them! An S3 with S4 arches, period mod but now just plain wrong.
