Brake Dust Shields

I have a classic 1982 Austin Mini with the 8.4 disc brakes on the front and I am looking for a set of left and right (full sets) of Brake Dust Shields. Does anyone have some in spare parts or some they have taken off that they may be willing to sell? Let me know, and if you are please reply to this thread and post a pic so I could double check with what I need. Thanks.

You can leave them off, will not hurt your car, I have one off due to breakage and no difference in dust on the wheels either

One rusted out on my classic so I removed it - I see absolutely no difference in dirt on the wheels, and the brakes seem to work equally well in all conditions.
