Have you looked in the Chimp forum, I am sure I have seen pics and threads on the Box section ones somewhere on here.

Newer one piece arms (as fitted to 500s) are cheap from TVR, £40 ish each. The older 430's have two piece, seems okay to me, but apparently harder to adjust camber with 2 piece. Nic

Not all 500's, My early 500 has 2 piece front uppers.
