Hey all,

The same as most people with an older RRS my wheel arch rubbers are starting to look rather worse for wear. The cheapest I've found for a set of replacements is on eBay for £57

Part numbers are:

Front rubber - CLB500051
Rear Rubber - CLB500061

I can't be the only person who thinks that the asking price on these is a little high considering what they are... can I ?

I've not set up a group buy before, but I'm sure this would be something that a few people would like to get involved in.

Any pointers from someone who's arranged a group buy previously would be appreciated. Would be good to hear from Duckworths and see what kind of deal they could offer too

I read somewhere on here that a Freelander 2 kit will fit and is cheaper. They do need trimmingt too if I remember correctly

There is a thread somewhere Col posted, I bought the other parts as suggested, think it may have been freelander and if you cut them correctly there's enough for 2 complete sets for RRS Nanocom Evo

I'd read that myself, but while the kit for the freelander is £45, you need to trim them by doing so you're exposing the metal core, meaning they won't last before starting to bubble and rust.

So the £15 saving over the correct ones is false economy.

Did mine 12 months ago and no issues, still have the "spare set" from the same pack in the garage should I need them. Nanocom Evo

I bought the freelancer 2 kit, comes with 6 pieces. Measured out correctly you can make enough for 3 sets. I done my own car then sold the remaining 4 to 2 others.

When you trim them you do expose the metal core. However a pea sized drop of sealant and it's all sealed up.

best to purchase 4 long FL2 ones and trim to size, 4 of those would be £32.00inc vat posted Sophie Alltoft
