rear lights
a front splitter
a set of cannards (can he do them too ?)
They can make anything you like. Only trouble being if the mould costs £600 to make inc labour and we can get 10 people to buy, we've £60 cost each before product cost, but these guys do seem keen so once they have settled into their new factory, I'll see what they think. For now, just working on the rear lights.

IMHO they look a bit busy! I think it would be better to have one reverse light in one cluster and one fog light in the other? Like these? wink

Will these new lights will have the shaped perspex cover like the Marcos ones? If so then count me in as a strong possible depending on final price, if not then count me out. Thanks.

Talking to the guys at Adrenaline, Perspex is a real pain in the arse - (they steam/condensate up). If Audi can't get it right, what chance have we. The lights are designed to be exposed and the GRP/carbon would be moulded to the original shape of the light, not the perspex. I have emailed Adrenaline the photos of Twerlies lights and will ring them this week to see that they think.

I think I prefer the noble mods lights. Wouldn't they be easier to produce?

We would be starting from scratch as far as design, so we have no template bar the original lights to work from. There were two sorts of lights available for Noble cars, (correct me if I'm wrong), the first was the Marcos lights with the perspex covers. These had reverse and fog lights built into the units, I have no idea on the old price for these made by Marcos engineering, (nolonger trading, one of the guys that helped Marcos put together the lights will be working on this project), these required a gig fitted to the rear clam and the body cut to fit. Then you had Noblemobs, (who now seemed to had ceased trading), these were exposed lights, with no fog or reverse lights, they had to be fitted as an addition.

What we are trying to product is a cost effective good looking light that will last and can be fitted as a straight replacement i.e - no cutting into the GRP to make it fit or additional lights and fitting required.

Up-date.....sorry for delay!!

Ok just spoken to Adrenaline Motorsports, good news, they have come up with a price of spin £400 a pair spin (not sure of VAT) plus paint if colour coded wanted.

The factory have asked that the design is confirmed so, if people can give their preference on what design we should go for that would be great(the choice is the diagram is the one I came up with, with reverse and fogs in each unit, the picture is the Noblemods/Marcos) If someone has the know how, could we start a list so I have the design preference and those who would be interested @ £400 a pair. The more we order the better the price, so if anyone knows anyone with a Noble who doesn't go one this site or any Marcos owners, could you give them a tap!!(I've posted on the Marcos PH site, but its like a ghost town)

Many thanks

Paul smile

Will this do?
Definition of New Style is as per your drawing and Marcos Style as per pics of Twerlie's car.

1 wessexrfc yes nono
2 MrCredit nono yes


Do I get a free set for starting the table? wink

In all seriousness tho, will the manufacturers either hold spares or be able to produce them on an adhoc basis? I'm just considering how easy they will be to source in the event someone rear-ends the car?
