Dunno, i don't check their site much at all !
I make my own in fglass and bond them on , less effort than welding and fixing the warps out .
If i had a genuine twincam I'd obviously go metal ..

If you really need a set you should push Rare Spares as they bought the tooling off a relative of mine a number of years ago to produce these flare lips, however probably ceased producing them due to lack of demand.
You would need to get onto someone in the manufacturing plant in Victoria and speak to them.
They also have the tooling to make the rust repair panel under the heater bowl, their die produces a larger panel than the UK sourced ones I have seen. Their panel continues up to about 1/8th of the large round hole, I kept a spare one in the shed just in case.
When Rare spares purchased the tooling for these panels restoring Escorts wasn't so popular, about 10 years ago.

Are there many steel arches available at all? Lots of alloy that need riveting on, which isn't always the look you want to go for.
 
Dumb question, but are there any wheel arch extensions of any sort available for 4 doors?
I have 2 rusty rear arches and thought the option of going a bit wider might be worth it, rather than doing a straight repair. I realise it would be trickier, but with the number of 2 door projects getting slimmer, hopefully more 4 door products become available.
 
I did see in one of Whooligans old Classic Ford mags a yellow 4 MKII door drift car that had been bodged up to a 2 door lookalike. It had 15'forrest arches, which on the rear, were just fitted straight across the rear opening, and high enough to cover the door handle.
 
What would be the chances of getting a road worthy with that config?
