Elia Tuning Aero for A110.

[Colin P]

Just wondering if anyone has any experience?

Am reviewing the options and this seems quite popular on the continent.

Hi there,

Was not familiar with Elia until your post.

They have some nice stuff, the clubsport part cage looks great.

Not sure what their aero stuff is like, I really do think the Life 110 Aero looks great but its flippin pricey.

regards

Aero-wise, I think a lot of it is the same as Axel Ress (alpine-tuning.de). The Life110 stuff is proper carbon made in Japan and IRL the quality really shows (the rear spoiler is UK-made I believe). I've seen Ress and Life stuff side by side - no comparison

Yes, they supply Axel Ress, one of 3 distributors that I have found.

As you say it's not CF like the Life 110 parts, but then when discussing with SWMBO, it's 1/3rd the price (she won't notice £1300, she will £5,000! ). Just trying to evaluate the options currently.

So, it's not as nice as the Life 110, but absent that what were your thoughts?

I have a Life 110 rear spoiler sitting in the loft (was included with my Alpine A110s but asked for it to be taken off as I preferred the cleaner look) and that has a sticker on the underside of the spoiler saying Sign Tech.

The initial ones were Signatech -but the current ones are UK made and have a weave which more closely matches the carbon used by Alpine on the roof

I ordered a life 110 spoiler last week. He did mention that he changed suppliers and the spoilers were now much more easily sourced.
