Looking for the thicker reproduction side covers for a 1975 S3 ... can't seem to find them via Google any more. Anyone know of a USA supplier?

Thanks

S3 KH400 side covers are made from a fairly heavy plastic as it is.
What are you looking to do??
You did mean the oil tank and battery covers right?
I do know that they can break the mounting nubs off if you're lucky... lol
dont even ask how I know

As for repro covers, I have not seen one.
Are they flimsey or what?

That is the correct cover for all 74 and later S1, S3, KH250 and KH400s. I am not aware of any thicker than OEM covers but these are available from several sources.
