Title: RUBBER KITS ! Post by: Blown_FC on July 15, 2005, 04:50:54 AM Just thought I'd pass on some info that may be of help to some of you looking for new rubbers for your car.
After falling off my chair at the Rare Spares price for a full kit for my FC sedan....$1409.00 I got to looking for other suppliers, and came accross WODDSIES WINDSCREENS in Perth. They suuply all winscreens for the F*rd Cobras and all rubbers and parts for most European makes that Rares don't deal with. Anyway, they can supply the whole kit plus a few parts that Rares don;t for $1250. Not massively cheaper than Rares, but $150 bucks is better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick ! PLUS, they use mostly Australian made rubbers form the Old rubber company and not Overseas made stuff that Rares apparantly deal in. I'm not rubbishing Rares at all, I think they are a great outfit, but it's always nice to know of other suppliers out there and not just the big boys all the time. Another point than won me over, is that as they have been in the trade for many years, they know there cars, and he knew all about FE, FC, FB, EK and so on.....they even recently had a couple of NEW NOS panels for a FB.EK Ute just hanging on the walls for the last 9 years. Anyway...if you want rubbers, give em a go.....call John 08 92712503 Cheers Mark Title: Re: RUBBER KITS !
