I got one from what was TVR car parts... but it doesn't fit my car anyway. David Gerald had another at BBWF and that didn't fit eiter.

  • SEAC nerd alert**>>> I think there were two sets of front end moulds, the easy identifying feature is that one has a recessed TVR badge and on the other the badge sits on a flat panel. Mine is the early type with the flat panel, plus the light recesses behind the acrylic panel are seperate mouldings screwed and bonded into place - I suspect later cars had the light recesses moulded into the nose as one.
I suspect Andy that your racer's nose is the same as mine and the available panels won't fit. My plan is to take the new one I bought and either modify it (fortunately it's slightly too big) or use it as a semi-pattern for cutting and marking a new part from scratch. Those fine lines over the side/fog lights look like they are going to be a bit*ch!
