[Mk2] [Generic] carbon bits by...?

Post by HighwayStar »

Hello all, good qualifying so far but why can't Jensen qualify like Lewis in this car?
Anyway. I'm considering some side ducts to the engine inlets. I know Rogue do some and also.. is it Rob Brookes? Anyway, pics please of what you have to inform my decision and any comments you have on fitting or supply etc.
Cheers.

Rob.

The clip in at the top and either glue or screws on the inside at the bottom. I used Tiger Seal and I doubt they are ever coming off now :thumleft:

Doesn't rob brookes do that style as well? I know he had a thread with stuff he can do but I can't find it now.

heres how good a fit they are. i used basic contact adhesive i got from halfords, then went and crashed one of them into armco. its still as attached as ever and not at all broken, barely even scratched. they are truely excellent quality.

Not the best of pictures, but these give you an idea of how the Carben Fibre ones 'sit' in the car. The fit and finish of them is second to none, simply fantastic!
