no such thing -- never reproduced, so all that is available would be NOS or used...
these were NOS:

There are some used pairs here in theSamba Classified and very rarely NOS ones show-up here as well.
I've seen used ones from $100. to NOS from $250. +
No one is repop'n and the Swedish Rears are even harder and costly, Fronts are the hardest to find in any condition.
I'd rather see them on a car than sitting in a showcase.

I've thought the same thing...
Someone should repop these. I think they'd sell for the right price... |

Old thread but I've found a shop that is open to repopping these...
Now its a matter of getting my hands on some for the to reproduce as they'll be only able to do so much with photos and fenders.
Any volunteers? |

| Whaen I was in seattle, I had a friend who is a badass metal fab guy. He was going to try to repop a few, but it would have meant destroying the ones I have. I didn't want to take that chance. |

| Plan B is for me to give him spare fenders to mold from but they aren't going to be as good as if him working from the real item... |
