    Hey Guys,

    So as many of you know these have been obsolete from VWoA for a few years now. Well awesome news! I'm able to get these now! These are high quality Genuine VW parts. These are coming out of Germany so it takes about a week to a week and a half for me to get them in stock. I have 1 full set right now (front and rear) and will be selling this set complete.

    The price for this set is $524.44 plus shipping. I only have this one set right now so first come first serve.

    The side skirts are still NLA. Sorry

    If you guys need just the fronts (or rears) PLEASE email me: zfoster@auburnvw.com or call (877-909-4940) and I can set something up. The fronts are $133.45 each, and the rears are $128.77 each.

    Thanks fellas!

    not really expensive at all, especially for obsolete parts for 20-27 year old cars...I paid the same at the dealer for new ones 5 years ago....pay to play unfortunately...

    Unless you've seen their stock...why not get a stockpile of these in first? I've seen this type of thing end bad, just because you've gotten one set doesn't mean many sets are available.

    yeah, ok buddy. welcome to the world of old cars. these are hard to find...have you priced a set of easy to find fender flares for any vehicles. bushwacker flares for my new truck are $550, and they're still in production.

    I'm not broke. I'm just realistic. The petroleum used to make these flares probably cost less than 5 dollars. Just my 2 cents...

    Someone buy a set, ship em off to china, and they'll make plenty for ya... since they are no longer in production there is no copyright infringement etc... they might even be able to make them out of polyurethane if someone wants softer flares..

    That may have been true, but with the cost of cars on average being well overpriced I imagine said million dollar molds and machinery have been well payed off by now.

    Amazes me the level of cheapness on this forum, someone comes in here posting once a month asking for G60 flares and now they are available and people still bitch.

    For those without a clue, these prices are almost identical to what they sold for years ago when in stock at Rapidparts and all those other places.. They were never cheap to begin with
