I have worked in the insurance sector for the last 18 years, it is very challenging especially with insurance premium tax, admin fees, brokers, price comparison sites etc. 

Shop around is the best advice and it would be good to support our sponsors. If anyone has a massive issue between £20-£50 a year then kitcars are probably not the hobby for you.

so you would be happy to bin £50 ?

Go back to Flux they will beat it, just annoying they try to screw you the first time, but it's always been that way.

no way, should give best price first not try to rip you off

I assume yours is a sierra based monocoque with inboard shocks?  In which case the brackets would normally be welded to the dummy strut.

yes will look at making the brackets off the dummy strut

yes have shopped  around  Adrian  flux was the dearest £130 ,then heritage 112.00, a plan thatcham was the best price £96.fully comp

who do you use ? find the best/cheapest

Which bit are you concerned with? How the brackets fit to the uprights or how the wings fit to the brackets? 

Brackets to uprights varies depending on what uprights your car has

Wings to brackets people normally either bond or bolt or both

yes how the brackets are fitted to the rear of the wheel

hi can anyone show me photos of how the small type front wings are attached as i have to make new brackets for mine as mine was the long ones originally
