About time

That looks pretty good to me
Have you tested it at speed ?
Just want to know if the corners lift at all .
When I had one out of flat sheet it would lift but I think this should stay put better with the shape and ducts to stiffen .

I don't think it will be tested at speed for some time on that car but it is the exact oem shape and very rigid so don't imagine lift will be an issue.

I was surprised how good it looked and half wished I'd kept it for my own car. Still I can order another one I guess.

Not quite as cheap as I'd have hoped though but does give a decent f40 style look. Rear visibility also massively improved over standard fibreglass version.

A nice product if you've got a pretty engine bay to show off and makes the car look more special, well more obviously rear engine at least!

i dont have any issues with the rear veiw with my fibre glass rearered rear hatch In.fact i dont find it of any problem.at all I.see all I need to.see and.i.dont.really see.that as avalid selling point tbh

AND THE COST????...........................

I've seen this episode before circa 1985....

Oh yes here it is:

Brief: When Delboy’s hooky ‘louvry’ door deal, financed with Denzil’s redundancy money, falls through, the boys attempt to repay him by catching a rare butterfly. Just when things looked like they were working out friendly Denzil comes along.

More than you will want to pay.

Maybe once you've driven one with a clear rear you'll find the visibility is better. It was Tony's comment anyway, he found it much better. I just like the look of it!!

and.i.dont.really see.that as avalid selling point tbh

I can't see anyone in the UK wanting to buy one anyway because of the price unless they smash their glass one. I'll most likely have one and I guess that will be it apart from the Europeans.

I quite like the look of it and for a bespoke item don't think the price is too terrible.

So what is the secret price then? It's like one of my favourite game shows when I was a nipper where they had to guess the price to see if it was right or not, now what the hell was it called

From £499

Looks especially good on a red car with a big wing.

I don't have any problems with rear visibility at all there is about a two inch bar that runs down the middle and the slats are about a few mm thick and far as I can remember the actual slates still very slightly down hill. When I am driving and I look in my mirror I do not even notice its there to be honest and for my purposes I would be more interested in a carbon version of what I have, due to weight and strength & TBH looks, how much does the clear weigh in comparison to the fiberglass version Tony has just removed?

It looks better on the car than I imagined though I have to say

So what is the price LOL??????
