yep, its our special bit that nobody else gets, easily anyway :P :P :P they are aerolook guards, available from a few places
V-Force
www.beetleracing.com.au
Vintage Vee Dub Supplies

& i Believe Rodney Penrose may have some
http://www.rodpenroseracing.com.au/ lucky for you lot in the USA is he goes over there frequently, if your keen on a set that may be your best bet, they are about $300-400AUD a corner though - the fronts are the same too, mite be costly for shipping though
supposedly the idea was they stop air from getting up inside the guards causing a big air pocket that makes the car lift at speed, similar to a kamei i guess, will see how it works in practise in a few months i guess.
oh brian, thanks for the feedback
