some people................... tell you what go and buy one off huddersfield spares and save yourself £2.00 while you are at it get a photo of how clear it is and post it up I can see no picture of the clear shield on the huddersfield spares site oh and find out what material it's made from, probably some cheap Perspex and not Lexan

I am trying to help people out, I have spent money on material to make some covers and you come along and diss what I am doing

all of a sudden I am really

Why did I bother

huddersfield one will end up the same as mine from mini mine IN THE BIN, snapped shortly after fitting, simple buy the kit from them huddersfield (until bluffin makes the brackets) and the shield from bluffin i got the first one on my car. much better than the others, no colour change in over 1000 miles unlike the one that s in the bin.

I don't think he meant to cause offence with his comment, i think he was just showing what else was available.
I offen get critism for my dashboard prices but I know for a fact I make top quality products, dare i say one of the best around. I just take critism on the chin and carry on.
I know for a fact that people don't realise what effort can go into making a product. Until you have two products side by side you just can't compare.

I shall be buying one of yours as i have sourced some second hand brackets and yours look invisible

Keep your chin up

[DannyTip]

What material is it made out of exactly? Pretty interested.

[Ethel]

How thick is the Polycarb sheet?

Also I'm guessing they're laser cut - what size sheet can your cutter handle - I may be looking for someone to cut me some windows and and a tailgate at some point.

Are these available to buy from you yet? If so put me down for one for sure!

Material is 2.0mm Lexan

Would not be much of a problem the cut windows but to be honest it will not be cheap as a 1 off if more are interested I could look into it

In the past now no worries, not sure about windows lets get one thing sorted at a time

[Mini Man Dan]

I dont want to be a pain but could i please take my name off the list for now as if i pass my driving test this time round i will have insurance to pay for so i may not have the money for this aswell.

I will try to purchase one once funds replenish though
