Hi all, following a recent thread about these i did a bit of searching and the only place i've found in the uk that does them is a place called Replikit (replikit.co.uk). They sell the new engine lids for £340 (not sure if thats painted or not, have to check that, i'd guess unpainted). I've emailed them about a group buy for us to get them a bit cheaper, they're giving me a quote on getting 30 orders, they havent come back with a price yet but hopefully it'll be within the next couple of days.
Just putting this up to see if there's much interest? I for one think they look great and definately want one
EDIT:
Just spoke to Chris at Replikit and got us a great price! They're normally £340 plus vat plus delivered (so thats £400 plus delivery), he said if we get 30 orders he'll do them at £270 inc vat and delivery! They''ll be primed and ready to paint, each one will come with all the brackets etc to fit.
Regarding payment, he said it'd be easier for everyone to pay me, then me pay him and send him everyones details (name, address etc) to get them sent out rather than him getting 30 paypal's/cheques etc and having to keep track of it himself. The lead time will be approx a month from order to delivery as they'll be made to order
We just need 30 people now!
here's some pics:
These last 3 are from Ask Sport in japan, and these show what they look like on a standard mr2 (they look identical to me but just incase there are any differences, these pics are just to show what it would look like on a standard mr2, its the Replikit one the group buy is for)
just a few pics Chris sent me of the engine lid from their demo car:

Just emailed Replikit about this, i'll get back with a price. But it'll be a lot more than the fibre glass one i imagine, and that would be going on if 30 people bought carbon fibre ones, which i doubt will happen, so i'd guess carbon fibre ones arent going to happen as a one off just for a few people wouldnt work out cheap
but i'll get back with a price anyway
Re: MK2 EXIGE STYLE ENGINE BAY COVER £270 INC DELIVERY!
Cheers mate, worth a go to see what price
Re: MK2 EXIGE STYLE ENGINE BAY COVER £270 INC DELIVERY!
had an email back, he said because carbon fibre is so expensive and sort after if they did do it it'd work out being about £700 per unit, so not worth it really
Re: MK2 EXIGE STYLE ENGINE BAY COVER £270 INC DELIVERY!
Really would prefer a perspex one.
I'm in in any case.

Interested in an Ask sport version ideally perspex if poss if not unpainted would be ok !
Re: MK2 EXIGE STYLE ENGINE BAY COVER £270 INC DELIVERY!
i've just emailed about a perspex version, i'll get back to you on it
also, i'll make a blank list and those who are in, just copy it and paste it into your post and add your name to the list, be able to keep track of people who want one then.

Re: MK2 EXIGE STYLE ENGINE BAY COVER £270 INC DELIVERY!
just had an email back from Chris @ Replikit about the perspex lids, he said for us to see how many orders we get as we might be able to do something. i've asked him to clarify that as to how many orders we'd need to do the perspex ones, i'll keep you posted!

Re: MK2 EXIGE STYLE ENGINE BAY COVER £270 INC DELIVERY!
am tempted if ya can get perspex, whats the tme scale on these
Re: MK2 EXIGE STYLE ENGINE BAY COVER £270 INC DELIVERY!
count me in for perspex if you can do them
Re: MK2 EXIGE STYLE ENGINE BAY COVER £270 INC DELIVERY!
just heard from Chris @ Replikit, he's looking into the perspex ones, but he says they'll be a lot more expensive, because its a different method of making them which they dont normally do. so for now i'd have to say forget the perspex idea. so just the list of fibreglass ones we'll do
