ha well i would be happy to make copies but i can't get hold of the originals, i tried to buy some but the company said they had discontinued them, then they told me they could have some new ones made but at extra cost, so i said ok but when they got here they were the wrong ones

yeah it really sucks, but mine will be glued to the car soon, as they are painted and ready. bozito (micratech) had them on the car too, he had a crash with it i think, maybe he has still the parts and it could be used to create a mould.

other thing:
in the inside of the skirts is a sticker of the factory glued in, i'll try to contact them, maybe they still have the mould.

cheers

so your skirts are already painted? are you desperate to get them on or is there still a chance a mould could be taken?

do you have any details for Micratech so i can contact him? i think even if the skirts are broken as long as all the bits are there it should be fixable.

if you manage to contact them that would be a great help, i had a go at contacting them via some other company and they said the moulds had been distroyed and then they said they had been repaired and then sent me the wrong ones so i have no idea what state the moulds are in.

thanks very much for your help mate, it would be awesome to get some moulds so they are not gone for ever, in fact it would be great to get moulds of the whole Postert kit so if anyone has a crash they can still get replacement parts.

yeah they're already painted, and will be fitted soon sorry mate
i had them lying in my basement for about two years now, without touching them, i have the frontbumper too, but again its painted now and i need to get them onto the car.

I'll see what i can do. And as you said, i wanted to buy a new bumper as my old was in five pieces, but its not on the market anymore, so i fibreglassed the old one, which was really a mess.

cheers mate

Joining in the conversation here..

I still have the first version Postert sideskirts and fully understand the fustration of all wanting to get hold of a set, and even making a mould, as they are realy hard to come by thesedays and the original molds probably are desroyed.

My sideskirts are glued to my Green Super S im afraid. But they will be taken of the car some time in the future, and I ashure you, a mould of them will be made so they are not lost forever! Not mainly to reproduce them, but to be able to make new ones if the ones on the car should ever be damaged.

I hope to speed things a bit up in the Micratech garage thesedays so hopefully it wont take forever before I get to making moulds of some of the Micra bodyparts I have got hold of over the years.

Cheers

thats good to hear Micratech, if you make some copies of the full kit then i will 100% take a copy, so as soon as you are ready just let me know and we can sort that out.

like you pointed out, if anything was to happen to the car, that would be the end of it, so its good that you are making moulds

there are a lot of skirts out there that are similar, but there is something about the postert kit, it is perfect. i think if i really get desperate i will take skirts from another car but i really want the postert ones

[CMF_Rudy]

Its that front bumper giving me a hard on, if some one makes a mould I'll buy one. Marshall, if you read this thats the sort of bumper I was talking about

thead from the dead gets a massive bump! anyone got any update on the postert sideskirts, i have everything i need for my kit except these

 

[CMF_micratech]

Hello Nex, I still have the Postert side skirts. But they are still on one of the Micras in my garage. I plan to take them off during next summer some time. Then it will be possible for me to make moulds and do copys. But this will be no walk in the park. As they have been on the car for some time, and have seen some wear. So I will need to heat, shape, fill, sand, prep and paint them before I can do moulds.

I also have Giacuzzo side skirts and Wald side skirts just laying around in the garage waiting to go on to future projects btw..lol

 

[CMF_NeX]

thread from the dead bump again,

sorry i didn't reply to you MicraTech, over a year ago, did you get anywhere with the skirts? i will happily drive up and borrow them for a mould if they are off the car

 

[CMF_SSUK]

Wow, another person I Scandinavia I didn't know about lol...

Hey,
well that goes for the both of us, so no worries mate! Always nice tho hear from you. I know I have not been too social on the web for some time now. But things are looking to change for the better, so I will be more easy to get in contact with in the future..

The Skirts are still on the car but I plan to take them off the car soon. I will then have both the Postert side skirts laying around, as well as the Wald side skirts and the MS Design/Giacuzzo ones. So i am keen on getting molds of both the Postert and the Wald skirts as soon as possible I guess.

The Postert side skirts really need some work done to them after being on the car for so long though, nasty weather and sun has made them all wobbly looking, but should be straight and nice once effort put in..

I will drop you an email soon..its a promice!

Cheers
Are
