Silver! Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Not wanting to jump on your mum's sale, but has anyone approached AutoBra? I spoke to them at the last groupbuy about a full cover for the front of the GTi. They said they would make one for me. They had a pattern already as they had made a 1 off for a guy in Holland, but he didn't want holes for the headlamp washers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They told me the country where they source there car bras from did not have the arosa sold over there so they had no car to design one on! His is going to get back to me as he did say I was not the only one that inquired about them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkie Posted June 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 so if all us arosa drivers get involved and ring up showing our interest he will see how much money they are losing out on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VWR Lupo Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 This is the email I sent them last night:HelloI cantacted you last week regarding a bonnet bra for a Mk1 Seat Arosa. Is it somthing you can make as apposed to sourceing from another country?If you want a car to make one on im sure I can loan my car for the job.Look forward to hearing from you. Kindest regardsLuke ChambersAnd got this back this morning:We have been trying to get these for about 1.5 years, the problem is the factory is not in this country and they are unable to find a donor car to make a template. i will ask again and see what we can dotomI think its best to get them made somewhere else, if your Mum's place cannot do them there is a local company to me who may be able to make them!

Clarkie Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 ok so if we all do our research and try and get them made we should be successful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunalupi Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 I'd be interested too, price dependant (as I do have the stuff to make one myself, I'm just too damn lazy )1. clarkie2. JoH3. sully4. Seanyb5. VWR Lupo6. lunalupi(I spoke to Autobra ages ago - in fact probably about 1.5 years! And they would have looked into it but they needed enough cars to make it worth it. They've obviously decided they can't do it now though.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VWR Lupo Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 @Clarkie: If your Mum cannot make them I have found a place that can! I have to wait until the 13th of July when the mananger is back off holiday to get a price so I will let you know then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunderland Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Hmm im apposed to these as I dont really like them, but I have a helluva lot of stone chips so may get one dependant upon price and how they look Ha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinylsj Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 hey guys last weekend i went to my local interior place and ask about getting one made but they said it would be rely pricey around £300 and as you can buy one for a lupo for around £60 i decided it just wernt worth it, but i had a little thought could you buy a lupo bonnet bra either second hand off some one or brand new and just alter it to fit a arosa??? the lupo bonnet bra would be slightly bigger so it wouldnt be that hard would it???just an idea :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
