Carbon body panels for VXR8/Monaro

Hey mate, i would be interested cuz i have a contact looking at providing engine panels ,rear wings /rear diffusers rtc etc.Ilove CF

Ferb is makin a carbon fibre bonnet i think for his ute

[leon britton]

When i get mine supercharged, i want engine covers and stuff.To make a plug of the rear wing then produce a mould, then make a one off wing will be apprx 800 quid, if i commision this might be worth offering a group buy (and on other bits ) ???

[Ferb]

Hopefully I will have carbon engine covers soon, but please be patient with me very busy at work

Would have thought there would have been a market for front spoiler and front wings.

To Ferb:
I was just about to cut down my engine cover to make the two covers like JamieP had fitted to his (around the supercharger) as I hate the bare rocker covers. Ball park figure of how much and how long? My other option is polished stainless, as I have a tame engineering company that I can use who are superb.

The moulds for my engine covers (see picture in my profile) should be finished in the next day or two, then I need to order some carbon. Not sure about cost, maybe around £150

Ferb,
Thank you for the prompt reply. Sorry but I really wanted ones off the LS2 or polished stainless.

J. J. I'm hoping to borrow some LS2 covers for a mould then see what I can come up with

Rear Boot spoilers for VXR8 would be good, maybe V8 supercar style but mounting to existing holes in bootlid, id be up for one.

Ferb, - could you do something similar to this? - The grille insert off the HRT 427?

If I was doing something like that for me, then yes but the problem is time is money. By the time you have made a buck then a mould then finaly the patten its just not worth it.
With the engine covers hopefully I can do quite a few so it will make it pay. I'll be taking a mould from my bonnet soon, but thats because I would like a carbon one for myself ( I do like the vents in that HRT bonnet )
