And very nice to see at the AutoSport Show at the NEC a couple of weekends ago. What did people think? The stand did attract a lot of interest but is it practical?

One idea I did come away with was doing something similar to the alloy side scoops, after speaking with Reverie it would be a far cheaper alternative to the carbon fibre versions!

Yep, I'll be up for the ally side covers as well (if more orders make it cheaper), especially on the CanAm.

Phil,

Count me in for alloy side scoops that will fit the GTR, else I'll have a crack at making my own CF ones...

Just to clear up an apparent misunderstanding I am not about to go into production, I just thought it was a good alternative and could be made to suit my particular needs. Reverie make the (IMO) expensive CF ones which I could not make myself. Alloy I can work with and can have formed, welded and polished/anodized/painted as required.

[Graham-P]

Oopps! sorry Phil didn't mean to start a buying spree.

I will ask the guy who is doing my dash to see if he can make me a pair in g/f and paint them body colour.

remember they could make the g/f in body colour gel coat!

When I had the reverie ones designed we tried using the gel that came with my body, unfortunatelly it was not quite enough in the pot so I had them raw C/F.
