pics?

 

[Craig]

Yeah, pics plese...

 

[Antony]

piccies...

the reason i didnt use it is, apart from the lack of resin on the carbon weave, its huuuuuge...fwn

 

[Craig]

You got dimensions Ant?

 

[Antony]

erm.. no but i can guess..

about 1.0m tall, 70cm wide and 28cm at its tallest point.

 

[Craig]

Ok, let me think.

No resin on the weave - how does that one work?

[Antony]

its a little weird finish actualy.... you know how carbon fibre is a fabric that is soaked in resin and then when its cooked in an autoclave the resin penetrates throughout and makes it all shiney and smooth......

well this isnt shiney or smooth and some of the carbon fabric actualy pokes through in some places....

its a very thin single thickness of carbon on a strong fibreglass structure.

but it does the job visualy.....

 

[Pete]

So it's fibreglass with carbon fibre stuck on for the look?

 

[Antony]

thats what it looks like when you get close up, but the carbon stuff is woven around the bends wich confuses the hell out of me...

 

[Pete]

Okay so it could be that someone has made it from fibreglass with carbon fibre sheet but never intended to bake it?

 

[Antony]

thats a good description of it yes..



if nobody will pay £40 for it make me an offer...

 

[Craig]

Let me do some measurements and I'll make you an offer, I'm interested...

 

[pjg1979]

Excuse my stupitiy, but where the hell does that go?

 

[Antony]

anywhere you wanna put it..lol

on an elise or vx220 it sits under the rear bumper and between the rear wheels..

slightly more difficult on a micra due to the panhard rod...

 

[pjg1979]

ahhhhh, I get it, It's a Carbon Snow Plough.

 

[Antony]

[Antony]

£20 come and get it..

 

[jowley]

how much to post it?? think a bit of modification will go nicely on mine then jus got to get one for the front1!

 

[Antony]

would cost a bit to post as its huuuge.

would say £20 postage costs, thats why i said £20 to begin with as thats fairly cheap (cheaper than i payed)
