Nice one. I'm planning to wrap it in carbon, so I'm 'adding' lightness! Shame the cars not orange, I have loads of it spare having wrapped some speakers, which is why I did the front grille of my GTI that you noticed.

Haha I've been tempted a few times, but I love the europa there's nothing I prefer. I have this new carbon wrap in which is incredible, makes the stuff used on my interior and your spoiler look crap. Only problem is it's so thick it's hard to use, but for the hardtop should be ok.

Yeah I do like the carbon wannabe spoiler but have been tempted to take it off and get it sprayed gloss black to match the roof scoop thingy majig

That's my other option, I've always got loads of gloss black in stock so could do the top and the rear roll cover too like the Elise S Cup. I'll bring you a sample of this new carbon I've got in, Im struggling to tell it apart from my real CF crash helmet.

As a few of us discovered with the gear cables I don't think much research is going into the listings. So for future purchases anything N/A or turbo specific may be worth an email to confirm part numbers.

 

 

Do we know for sure how much (if any) fettling needs doing to these cables to make them fit an NA?

The cables are different length so I imagine just need rerouting in a way that allows them to fit Unless the cable clamps on the gesrbox side are different.. I have a pair of low miler NA ones for sale :D
