How about door & rear interior trim panels? Always hear peeps asking about them, as well as me :D
doors, mk2 wings, bonnet, tailgate
I would be very intrested in these too. Get some prices together
yeah get a price list together and i may be interested lol
imho, id suggest not bothering with carbon or fibreglass, and just get a price on kevlar stuff as it bends rather than breaks so if you do nudge someone/thing you wont have such a massive repair bill on the way lol
id possibly consider MK1 wings, boot lid (if you can get it below 7Kg), door skins and bonnet (again if you can actually get it lighter than the steel one)
the interior boot panels, not the passenger side trim, the actull rear boot trim, as ive already got the cabin rear trim.

Mk2 carbon tailgate and bonnet (custom one) il pm you a pick of my bonnet when i get home as i want the same but lighter.
Interior panels: Front door cards (no holes for window winders though - just holes for door handle) Rear door cards, stretching from the rear seats through into the boot and the panel that covers the inside of the boot.
I have templates already made if that makes it any easier? Just so you know, the rear door cards are NOT the same shape. The drivers side arch is larger which i presume is because of the funnel for the fuel tank?

I'd be interested in a bonnet and tailgate :D

i would definitely buy doors and front wings, these would be good to make as no-one else does, there are a couple of places that sell fibreglass bonnets and tailgates.

right im starting the moulds tomorrow for the front wings and the bonnet should be about a week and ill be producing some first off fibre glass is strongest against impacts as is kevlar the only prob with carbon it is brittle and impact is not as strong as for forces such as turning pushing pulling fibre glass is not as strong carbon and kevlar are much better so i will be able to mix these up such as fibreglass panel with carn kevlar at the corners and stress points ill work out price tomorrow and will note down the items everyone wants and what price i can do them for.
Cheers all Steve
and jck if you get me a se of celica bumpers ill make a mould just for you and do you something special eg carbon kevlar standard bumpers as ur a mate and ram air duct runnung from the lower front air intake

04-08-05, 09:53 PM

No bumpers to spare at the moment :( air duct sounds good though...

Steve,
Don't know how serious you are but I'll definately have a pair of Kevlar wings and a passenger door, door could be grp but not bothered about price too much so kevlar would be preffered. I already have a drivers door which I haven't fitted yet.
If/when I get these the only external panels which would be metal on my car then will be the rear quarters :o 8)
Keep me updated as I've been after a pair of wings for 2 years!! I am sick and tired of changing front wings after every rally!!!!!

Would you be interested in making a GRP Air box to fit over the ends of my TB's, which could mate up to a bonnet vent?

Right started the prep for the bonnet and wings bonnet out of carbon fibre will range between 300 and 400 pounds in carbon fibre and 200 for fibre glass if anyone can find lower prices on the net tell me and give me link and inner doors and rear covers around 200 for all 4 panels in carbon kevlar will add 100 to each but the finish will be perfect and i can add vents and other things on the design

STE Novavanman
06-08-05, 10:54 AM
Right im having alot of prrps asking me about price and this is the breakdown on what the price might consit
How many Layers of matt
How many coats of gel coat (eg finish shiney or matt)
What kind of material (eg kevlar, carbon/kevlar, carbon, fibre glass, fibre glass/carbon and so on)
What vents you want and additions
Any supports for strength
and finally how much to make up a mould?
Steve, I don't want to jump the gun, but you could be on to a nice little money spinner if you can do them to a high enough quality.
Good luck with it, I'm looking forward to seeing some pics :)
Jim
Ste, i just want a price for middle of the road Fibre glass Wings, nothing too special but something half decent,, although the finish must be A1, as for the bonnet, as long as its strengthened where the hinges mount, thats me sorted.
STE Novavanman
06-08-05, 03:34 PM
you wont want hinges you will want pins far better and keeps the bonnet straighter the hinges also for the weight it would be it would lift off with one hand
i'l have a firbeglass everything with loads of vents everywhere..
seriously, i may be interested in a firbeglass/carbon/kevlar boot, bonnet, wings and doors
just out of interst, what do you do for a living ?
STE Novavanman
