I wondered how long it would be before somebody identified them!

I ve had a few Lotus Carltons & still got a lot of parts for them so I know my way around them , nice job

Got these to fit......one day.
Need to make a press tool first though as want recess fit as per OE.

Took a bit longer than I wanted, but got there in the end.



Hoping to reach my end goals sometime 2020 !

Mate that looks brilliant

Did you do it or get somebody else ???

I did the butchery bit, but not the paint

Brilliant job
So Lotus Carlton vents no wonder they look good

The idea popped into my head couple years ago and I couldn't shake it off.
Still struggling with much worse ideas now
There's a few pics of the work here:-

Whoa !!! I'm not looking to do this on a commercial basis, just show
how it can be done. Believe me, I stood with my angle grinder running
for ages telling myself "not to be a pussy and get on with it!!",
and that's with my own bonnet ! (bought a new one in case I fked it up.)
