Title: Fe scuff plates Post by: Laszlo on June 11, 2021, 07:08:14 AM G'day guys !
Just a short question : The Fc scuff plate is exactly the same as Fe one ? Rare spares selling them under Fc fitting. In the shop no one knew the answer. I presume they are same, but you never know... Thanks : Laszlo Title: Re: Fe scuff plates Post by: mcl1959 on June 11, 2021, 08:28:27 AM Different, FE scuffplates have a flat profile, whilst FC have a raised section running the length of the plate. Supposed to be to repel water from entering the car.

My next question : Can I still use the Fc one in my Fe ? Will fit ? Laszlo Title: Re: Fe scuff plates Post by: Laszlo on June 11, 2021, 02:05:36 PM I did find an old thread about the stainless steel scuff plates. So I know now the Fc will fitt perfectly to Fe.
Anybody knows if Sam still making the plates after 10 + years ? I did try the number 0358221379, still working with the answering machine. So wait and see.

And you are correct, the FC ones will fit in FE
Ken Title: Re: Fe scuff plates Post by: Laszlo on June 11, 2021, 09:04:07 PM Yes, his still making them and a few other things too. After I left a message on his home phone he rang me back. 0358221379 still his number.
I'm ordering a set of scuff plates a petrol trim cap and a pair of wiper arm air foil. Good price too. The set of Fc scuff plates from Rare spares is over $400 from him the stainless steel one is $300 with postage to Brisbane.

Title: Re: Fe scuff plates Post by: Laszlo on June 13, 2021, 09:10:30 AM You are welcome mate !
Just a side note : the Fc and Fe plates a slightly different, what Ken was saying the profile flat Fe vs raised Fc. The end bit on the front one slightly different too. On the rear one for the Fc only has 3 holes vs 4 on the Fe. Not a big deal anyway.
