Default Aero catches

Anybody used these? I'm looking for some catches and really don't fancy the standard rubber ones. Aero catches will cost a lot more but it's one of those areas of the build where I'm happy to put my tightwadishness aside.

Posted in here because the scammers have got the bodywork section jammed up

ive used them but not got my car on the road yet.
i think you will need 2 pairs unless you can work out how to secure the front.
I've also used the flush fitting ones but it takes a lot of patience to get them looking good, they are stuck on with tiger seal.

Pics here, I used a piece of inch box for the mount for the catch

I'm planning on using these as well, they can be purchased for £5 less for each pair on ebay:

Build cost.... seems to be spending more on tools than car bits at the moment! (they will be handy in the future though).
Car iva'd and passed 15/08/2014. Finished weight 572kg.
