I have had a Rare Spares grille badge on my HK daily driver for over 3 years now and even despite the harsh Adelaide summers it still looks as good as the day I bought it. Good job.

We bought some outer door weather strips, Part RDS1050 and 49 they were a very good reproduction, and fitted perfectly the best we have had, and these are the third. Also the bonnet lacing was very good, as were the consoles.

RE: LX Hatch Repair Lower Corner With regards to these corner sections and the channel sect, they are pretty well spot on when you look at the profile of theses pieces compared to the originals. I have no hesitation recommending these to anyone!

HJ HX HZ Front Bumper Bar Rubbers. I have a rares one and it fitted perfectly. They are good.

OK I finally picked up my SL/R mirrors today from rare spares today after a three month wait.I have been assured the mirror defects have been fixed and the wait was worth it. So ive decide to give them a review so other members can examine and comment on what they think of the current reproductions.Here goes: The mirrors are made in Taiwan for Rare Spares. The molded casing looks to be finished very well with no plastic flash around the edges and everything is smooth and well finished. The chrome work looks to be very good with excellent shine and no evident sand marks or machine marks under the chrome. The fit of the chrome pivot is very good and all attaching and adjusting cap screws are stainless. The attaching plate is zinc plated very nicely and is a good fit in the bottom of the mirror and the attaching hole placement is spot on. The rubber seal that fits under the mounting plate is smooth with no flashed edges and looks original. The glass is an even fit in the mirror and moves nicely for adjustment with slight pressure and moves on it axis as it should with ample adjustment. The retractable molded head moves chunkily when forced as it should in the event of being knocked. So without actually having them on the car I would say that these mirrors are a good reproduction and Im very happy with the overall finish fit of the components.

Well I had a very unexpected thing happen after my post... On Thursday I had a message from one of the kind people at Rare Spares, I made a phone call and had a great chat with one of the team. Rare Spares actually make the lenses, my local supplier didnt think that they were available, but they were. Yay! Wow holy crap, wow. The best customer service I have ever received. Ever! Cheers Rare Spares! Btw my local store is fantastic, if you get the chance talk to Ian at Richmond, Adelaide you wont be wasting your time.

I have just completed my replacement of ALL my LX Hatch rubbers after a respray. Used the Rare Spares kit, and all fitted fantastic, no complaints at all - brilliant.

Date - Wednesday, 21 January 2015

I can tell you that my experiences within the street machine industry have, in the main, been fairly poor in regards to the service levels received. Rare Spares is the exception. Every time Ive spoken to someone at the store or been in to visit Ive received excellent service. You have a great range of products and your website is easy to navigate. Hopefully once my VL Commodore is finished I can send through some pictures of the finished article!

I recently saw your LC GTR badges and was impressed with the quality, couldnt tell the difference between original and your badge on the car. Its good to see Rare Spares is making more and more for Toranas

Rares battery trays are excellent

We fitted both left and right repo guards to my Hk Premier they were a little tricky to fit, no worse than old replacements as long as you have experience fitting panels then it wont be a problem, but in saying that some cars are different to others. If I were you I would go with the new repo guards. I am very happy with mine no rust, straight and look great once fitted.

"I couldnt be happier with the price & quality of the panels, thanks!"

Mike, Just a word of thanks to you guys. I am sure you are aware of the challenges of restoring vehicles out here in SA. But with support like I received from you guys it is a treat. I received the package today, and low and behold all the correct parts!! Once again thank you very much for the excellent service....AND FOR THE GIFT!!! Thanks, Paul

Thank you for the courtesy and professionalism extended to me by both you and Lance. I very much appreciated it and your customer service was like “poetry in motion.” Quite rare and refreshing these days, but that’s what makes your brand special and a go to business, as you are very aware.

The 7400227 layshafts arrived on Friday – many thanks. I fitted them up with no drama at all. Good to finally have those gearboxes finished.

I followed up the video that was sent on the FC door belt fitting. I looked at the video, went home & was able to install the door belts without any problems. The pillar seal issue was also resolved. Your help was far better than offered by listening to other people.

I would like to express my approval on the new four speed shifter for the LJ Torana. it felt like it just came out of the Holden factory. The lever was chromed and the whole assembly looked brand new , as it was. It fitted perfectly

I had such a great weekend and I would love to do it again. Big thanks to Rare Spares, David Rayner, Amy Rayner, Hamilton (jb manger) and John Bowe for the great weekend and the experience dad and I enjoyed. Adelaide is a very nice place to stay and the hotel Rare Spares set up was wonderful. The dinner with John Bowe, David Rayner and Hamilton was great and we laughed a lot and got to learn a little more about the category JB is racing in. We got to do so much more than we were expecting like the tour of Jason Brights pit and car. It felt like we were part of the team being able to go into pit lane as John Bowe lined up to race. Dad and I couldnt stop smiling the whole weekend and we couldnt believe how great and how much activities we got to do. Big thanks again, couldnt be more happier with how the weekend went.

This is my own personal experience with them and I would not hesitate in doing it again. Cheers Kiwivan
