Hi,realise it's a long shot but does anybody have a set of these to sell
(http://i325.photobucket.com/albums/k391/a40farina/47be4ba7-9c76-4626-b6d4-d8e1839a8f2b_zpsqm4tyeqd.jpg)

Thanks John. :y

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.

will probably end up doing that,worth a shot though as there are currently 2 carbon sets on fleabay.

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
