Hi Andy,
Good to speak to you on the phone last week. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. I've added it to the list of things to source.

Hello and welcome. I think the club had some made in fibreglass, but it was many years ago. Try Adrian Miller on this forum. If you join the club you will get access to the club spares scheme and the rest of the forum and magazine.
