    It is tempting but I think I will pass as Im concerned they might be a bit to brittle for me, atleast if I bump a steel one it can be repaired.
    Yes i talk to myself, sometimes i need a professional opinion

    Yep, these cars are not the verge of parts price jumping... just like what we see with the cars creeping up in value. That price for 2 is pretty good and tbh if i needed some i would go down the FG route... don't see why not but everyone has their own point of view thats just as valid.

    You have quite a project you are building yourself there..... i'm just excited about actually driving mine to the MOT centre this year some time.

    I've got the carbenfibre wings and the moulding for these was taken from a pair of wings I supplied.

    Fitment was okay, not perfect. One side took a lot of work but it was the same corner that my car has had a smash on.

    They are made to order, which in my case wasn't explained, they took ages, the carbenfibrecreations didn't answer any of my e-mails for weeks. I was about the make a claim with my bank for the money spent when i finally received communication from the seller. Left a bad taste tbh.

    Is that actually the case? I've got two sets of good steel wings in the loft : )

    He's come back to me daily....

    Been told 4 weeks but he's from Essex so I can collect to avoid postage charge and more time.

    I'm not spending £300 on a front wing.

    Certain people are advertising them at those prices, but not sure if they're selling.

    HTH.
