plastics Has anybody found a good aftermarket maker for the 12's bodywork? It doesn't matter if it is street or track only.
Thanks,
Chris

Plastics I'm in the UK and have been trying to find replacement panels (over here a genuine top fairing and both side panels cost over £700, with no heat shields or decals etc.)with no joy.
A local reputable fibre glass laminator (he makes all the panels for the Caterham "Lotus 7 style" cars) has said that he can make a set of moulds for £200, and then a complete front fairing for £200 per set. He can do them in Pre-preg colours or plain white and either race style (I'm going for race stle with a small set of endurance style lights) or standard.

Mike, EXACTLY the style I'm going for! Let me know what you use for lights, I've got a "spare" front fairing that's going to be used for this project

I'm going to use a set of small (aprox 20mm dia lens) car projector fog lamps. I know from having done endurance racing over here in Europe to have one set to throw a normal beam when riding, and one pointing skywards so that when the forks dip under braking you get a decent light spread in front. Ignore the cage drivers flashing you at night....at least they are seeing you!
