of fibreglass.It gives most people a
or makes them 
so I thought I'd offer my services. Anyone got a problem
I'll try and help...
Excellent stuff! Just a shame the materials are so expensive... unless of course you know different...? ;-)
You may find a market in doing copies of spoilers etc for the Wedge cars: there's TET mouldings (ex-TVR man) but he doesn't do many of the bolt-on bits. He tends to stick with noses, bonnets, headlamp pods etc.. Wedges tend to get bumped into low kerbs and so on which shreds front spoilers that only have 3" ground clearance!

What'd ye say FIBRE-MAN?

How about the front splitter ? I few people have asked me where I got mine from, its origional equipment, but lots of cars damage or loose them. Incidently, FibreGlass isnt expensive to buy, its just a pain in the arse to use IMHO.
How about a lightweight roof panel as on the griffs and chimps ? my centre panel weighs an absolute tonne ....

well actually i know a chap geting a mould made for a 2 piece hard top using a copy of the standard center section.
but the original centersection must weigh about 1/4 of the one ofr my chim

we have also had a front end mould made for the s1 as the tassz challenge has ben through a few..
FG man where in the midlands are you

As with all bolt on bits for tvrs,If there is enough demand for certain bits its well worth making a mould,as its the most expensise part to make.If any body has got any good ideas on how to jazz up any of the chimp or griff models I would love to hear them,At the moment iam working on a front & rear spoiler for chimp.As to were I work its just 2miles west of Dudley if that any help.
Graham,
Thanks for the plug.
Jason,
Graham is right - I have borrowed his hard roof section and rear soft section to get a two piece hard top made. The parts will be V-Light as the intent is to use them as a hard top on my 450 racer. I went for a two piece jobby as a few folks had asked about the centre section (some owners have lost them - doh!). They'll need a bit of work but should be cheap. I'll let you know when there done - keep in touch.
