C-One front lip £350, expensive?

Post by ryan »

This is a rare bit of kit, but does seem a tad expensive. i have ordered stuff from mtte before, so i've no doubt it will be ok, but £350 :shock:
E bay don't even offer any :cry:

Sounds a little expensive, but then I did pay £200 for a C-One rev5 shape rear spoiler from eBay 6 months ago..

Edit: mine was imported from U.S.

That price is ridiculous Ryan!

The c-one item isn't even very big! You could get a complete bumper for that mate.

Yeah, i know what you mean, but I don't want to risk a poorly fitting nose cone off E bay, and want to keep the car fairly subtle.
If I start going for border nosecone, it will make my wheels look too small and i'd need to lower the car to carry it off I reckon too. I like the subtle C one splitter, i'll try and get a pic up...

Imagine hitting it on a kerb though! I'd be suicidal!

What's it made from?

If it's urethene it's worth the premium IMO.

I assume its fibreglass. Nice if it was urethane, bit harder to crack? #-o
