remember that cabby sills are specific, so that affects the price quite a bit.

they seem to go about £500, but just for info the skirts for the cabby are deeper than the standard skirts.

Depending on condition, that price is spot on.

I guess the price is related to the fact that it is ultimately cheaper to bolt a load of tasteless plastic on your turd than replace all the foooked / missing bodywork that it covers up :)

most 25+ year old bodykits (and other parts for that matter) are going to need preparation work before fitting, it goes without saying really.
these kits are getting very difficult to find complete now, more so than Tech2 kits and you know how much they sell for.
this gives you an idea of what they will fetch (fogs included):

Sorry for the hijack but does anyone know how much a set of tech 1 sideskirts (non cabby) go for now???
if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.

i would estimate £150 or so for a genuine pair Steve, if you can find a spare pair that are not part of a complete kit.
