At long last all the carbon fibre is done. We now have: Sill plates (with VX220 or Speedster logos) Dash plates Handle guards Door cards gearbox shrouds I'm just finalising prices now (moulds were almost £2k :o ) but if I order enough they're not as bad as they seem. All the parts will be available via our new on line shop (hopefull up and running before Christmas) which has secure credit card handling and we can sell all the other stuff (we have all the clothing is stock again now). All the stuff looks really really good. B)

It's nice to see these bits on a car rather than laid on the kitchen table - is you car going to be modelling them at Hethel? Any chance you could squeeze my old door cards in the boot next week as well?

We now have:

Sill plates (with VX220 or Speedster logos)
Dash plates
Handle guards
Door cards
gearbox shrouds

Thorney,

Nice work! :D

How is it with the LHD specific stuff - dash plates and gearlever shroud?
Did you manage to get anything sorted here for all the Speedster owners?
BTW, you did say a while back that the sill plates would be available without logo too – does that still hold true?

Can you please make the ordering on the online shop as clear and self-explanatory as possible, preferably with piccies of each item and simple details of p&p/insurance costs to UK and mainland europe – then I'll post on the german forum again and tell 'em to order direct from you. That should boost the total nicely as quite a few seem keen on at least some bits such as handle guards and it would help to keep the end price down for all of us.
:)

Sill plates can be plain (they are on mine) and yes, all the parts are available in LHD for the Speedster. On line shop is taking a while to configure but plan is to make it clear as possible with Euro postage rates and UK. Sorry its taken so long really.

Dude - there was an earlier thread which had piccies of the other bits that Thorney has mentioned... If you search for carbon, then you should find it... (IIRC it was about 4/6 weeks ago) HTH

Hi ! The Speedster community asks me twice a day about the carbon parts, I'll post the new door plate picture. Stephan
