Anyone have a filgaurd for sale? , or the exact measurements? , I intend to have one made in stainless,
but I need one to copy from.
If it is cost effective a mate has indicated he would make them to order.

I know Stinky looked into this a few years back. I loaned him the one off Faecal to get measurements from - he may still have them.
Be aware that there are two different neck lengths on the filler. Some stick out a few more mm, and if used as the template you'll find they won't fit all cars. The fellow who used to make the repro ones (Sam, of the mud-flap brackets), used to do two different length versions.
Hope that helps,

This is for the "long neck" version, the short-neck is approximately 8mm shorter.

Thankyou , but it may sound like a silly question, but on the shorter version does the 8mm come of the
top end (closest to the neck) and which fits what ?

The 8mm comes off the top of the neck, the shorter version will fit all body types and as I understand the long version (as in Alex's pic) is only for the Sedan as the filler neck is further out.
