These are fresh out of the moulds this morning, still need trimming and finishing but I think they look 8-)

The weight difference is pretty good too, once trimmed properly with holes cut etc should be about 10% of the OEM weight.

If any one fancies a set, I'll be looking for £25 delivered or can bring to the national meet for £20 ;)

Will get them trimmed and polished tonight with some installed pics up in the next day or so

P.S. If someone wants me to make these for the 4g it's not a problem, would just need a pair of the OEM ones sending through :)

:) you can send your mounts through if you like?

I've done over a 1000 miles with my ghetto cable tie rad mounts while these have been off ;)

Very good mate :)

Out of interest, what are the chances of you making some CF 4th gen nostril/grille vent things?

Can do that if you want, would need originals first though. Would skinned be enough or do you want a full part?

What about making a carbon fibre types S airbox? Now that would be good!

It would be cool, but also very bloody complicated and very expensive :(

Yeah I guess you would have to make 2 molds (top and bottom ) and then join them together? Or could you make one mold then cut it in half to get it off? Would like cool in the engine bay!
