They do look good. Wonder why he used the Standard Rear door cards as templates? Really, if your stripping out your car, you wouldn't have passengers in the back, so need need for the ashtray in the rear door cards :| Might have looked better if it was flat, rather than the shape of the original door cards :?

enquired about the binnacles a while ago.

they'd be better if he did the 'bit next to it' too.

and rear carbon fiber cards are useful for those that want to have a lether trim with carbon or etc, and carry passengers rather than strip it bare.

It takes months for gear off this guy to come. You have been warned!

That is what I heard, but Tonydry ordered some stuff off him about a month ago, and so I can gather he had it a few weeks later.

I asked the guy about the delays, he said it was down to the amount orders he had and didnt have time to get them all done in time.

Supposedly the quality is great to, and its a hell of alot cheaper.

Best bet is to speak to him and make sure he can get it to u for when u need it.

His Names Simon,
I brought some doorcards and full length rear panels off him. Cost ?170, but he said 1-2weeks! 3 Months later after me threatening him with legal action they finally turned up!

Yes be warned!

The lesson is: do NOT pay the full ammount. Pay a deposit, with rest payable upon delivery.

Wouldnt you need to collect it really to do that cos hes not going to end a ?400 bonnet when youve only paid a deposit

same principle applies to sending payment of ?400, before u receive anything.

But i would say that he seems like a good guy to do business with. repolied to all my enquiries promptly, and most have been more than impressed with his goods.
