Anyone interested? Talking around 50 a pair. More details tonight. My friend works at a fabrication place and asked if I'd be interested. I said possibly 10 could be. He already has a template which he will show me later.

Very interested, I've seen the carbon ones and I just don't like all that blackness. I guess for weight they are ideal but I'm not too fussed about that. Are they able to be etched with the VX logo ? SB

I could be interested in these. Sounds like a decent price as well.

Lol@mr boots. Yeah, to clarify these go under the doors, to protct the fibreglass. (I have a crack from kneeling on it!) -not the black bit that everybody breaks. That'd be a bit hardcore in stainless!

recon he can make up some engine plates for the 2.2 aswell?

[Vespa]

yup, id be very interested

[JohnTurbo]

Chris. I'd say thats entirely possible. I'll see how this goes first. Saw him before but he left template in his van. :s Going to send me photos of it tomorrow.

I have a picture with a cut logo...but backing is still on, so it doesn't look much! Was asking about the finish of the cut - apparently its clean, unlike plasma! Then i realised i have a lasercut keyring. They're trying 'etching' the logo with a bead-blasting mask, and this will be done Tuesday. I hope to have something representative to show then! I'm sure they'll be a good job.

any chance he could do a pair in ali to match inside of car?

[gherkin]

Theres a very strong chance I would take a pair of these, just depends on the pics really. Look forward to seeing them. I was looking for a pair of CF ones but the ones I was after seem to be pretty hard to come across.

[JohnTurbo]

Right!

Sorry this took a little while.

I'm going on holiday on friday until the 21st, so wanted to get something before then. Consequently as i had to fly over to meet the guy, then to my poor broken car - i've only had a chance to use my phone to take pics. The results are not exactly SLR quality. The logo is quite dark grey, like in the driveway pictures, and the finish is more like the car pictures in reality.

Anyway.. My friends got me a sample. The finish is brushed stainless steel, and the logo is etched. Apparently a cut logo is possible but would cost an extra tenner.

I'm pleased with the way it looks. Being brushed it matches better with the aluminium than it would if it was shiney.
