Re: fibreglass parts
Louvres would definately sell. If you could make one for a MK3 I'd have one. Wings etc. probably would too. All depends on the price like
'88 360 +T LSD - sold
'87 760 TDI (D24TIC) - sold
'04 V40 D sport (F9Q, decat, Remapped, launch control)
'89 740 SE (b230ft, 12psi, V-cam, headwork, 'remapped', banded steels)
'86 340 DL 1.4

Re: fibreglass parts
Certainly be up for a louvre. Not so much wings, I like having an extra layer of metal there
Bonnets and boot lids possibly though.

Re: fibreglass parts
Suprised no one has said it yet, but i reckon Snowcaps would be a good seller, i'd have one if they were cheap enough

Re: fibreglass parts
Bodykit moulds already exist, so not likely worth making another set!

Re: fibreglass parts
Hi all.
Snowcaps are great. I love mine,[cheers vnd]. Every 300 should have one.
Louvers are f*****g the buisness,[cheers Fritts].
If replacements could be made, it would certinly sell.
Cheers Mark.

Re: fibreglass parts
yeah definitely, fiberglass wings would be a godsend for me as im going to start rebuilding my first 340 soon and the wings + valance are long gone, and i guess solid metal replacements are hard to come by 



Re: fibreglass parts
probley not wings as beening a drift car can get caught but maybe a bonnet and boot depending on price
and defiantly want a Louver they are cool but maybe when every ones got one will they be cool haha

Re: fibreglass parts
Yeah, but they exist in farrell's shed and who knows when they'll reappear? I need a kit for my silver 3dr GLT!Chris_C wrote:Bodykit moulds already exist, so not likely worth making another set!
Also, as above Louvres are the most sought after item for a 300, but might be pretty tricky to make out of GRP.
Yeah they cost 100 quid IIRC, so all you need to do is sell them for less than that and put some effort into advertising. Nev's website for example is less than helpful:slim_jim wrote:its already been done you can get them from nev at f1moto
