Hi,

Classic parechocs in France propose a complete set front and rear bumpers. for Flaminia Touring, you can contact them for your specific request :

If I remember well, wheel rings are(were) also available (new) on the net (in Italy I presume). Have a look at eBay. The price for a set (4 pièces) is near 160 / 200 €.
Notice than, usually the set in for only 4 parts, the spare wheel don't have a ring.

Hello,

My best wishes for the new year 2018 and thank you for your reply. What are your thoughts about the shape and fitting of the remanufactured wheels rings, in comparison to the originals ? Are there differences ? Thank you for your advices.

Hi,

When I bought may car (23 years ago) it was fully restored including wheel rings. So, I am not sure that these rings (still on my car) are the original ones.

There are in standard steel but chromed. Due to usage, rain, durst brake .... after 23 years, the chrome in not in good condition.
So I decided to buy the new current rings (160 € for brand new is probably not more expensive than the re-chrome operation of the complete set).
The new rings are in stainless steel, so I presume of better quality than chromed steel.
At the moment, there are not in place on the wheels but look fine.

Attach, two picture of the "old" ring (complete and detail) and a picture of the new one I know ... a screw is missing on the current ring at the top.

Hope this helps,

Pierre,

Hello Pierre,

Nice and thank you for your reply. On my car there are still the first ring set. If I am not in a mistake, the material looks to be relatively thin chromed brass. There are several sources to purchage new rings. Do you know if there are different qualities on the market ?

Best regards

Hi,

Thickness is near 1 mm. Usual for this kind of object.

Not sure of course, but there is probably only one manufacturer. And probably too,, the manufacturer does à batch of rings and then stop manufacturing since ... several more requests,

The addess given by Georges (dupont) is the same vendor that the eBay link I sent. The current price is 160 € without cost delivery.

Pierre.
