I don't have any - but I've thought about this / similar myself and found (unless the super-rare set does become available) best bet is some wood effect film you can get readily from heebay or similar. There's a massive range of all kind of finishes, even several shades of walnut that I've found. Given taht the original Irmscher part is just a plastic component with a vinyl film over it, I neve thought it a terrible compromise to go down the DIY route.

A search for keywords such as wood walnut 3m film etc.. should see you right without too much digging.

Always worth an ask, oh definitely. The obscure stuff that people have in their garages. Found a stainless rear wheel arch trim from one of my old man's HC Vivas on there the other day! (Hasn't been one of them up the drive since approx 1987  :y)

Oh, just had another thought, if you go down the route of covering some of these in a wood film. If your 'scallops' (as I call them) are a smooth soft-feel plastic - don't cover them! If they're 'grained' like the door cards, dash etc in a leather grain effect, then fine/ Only reason being the smooth ones were Elite-only and much rarer  :y
