does anyone know were to get Carbon fibre flip fronts from i was at the notts mini meet the other day and someone said that you can get a flip fronmt for about £300 if anyone can shed some light on this i would be greatful

talk to smudger (you can find a thread by him in styling I believe regarding carbon bootlids). He does all sorts of carbon and FG stuff (very high quality and good prices). If he's unable to do a flip front he'll at least be able to refer you to someone who can.

thanks for that i will have a look

Yep Smudger is your man, he supplied a friend with one and it looks and fitted great (Best Andy at ML motorsport has fitted he reckons)

There is a huge thread on MR showing the fitting................

Doc's CF flip front

Goto about page 11 :grin:

not putting sumdger down in anyway.... his work has an awesome rep on the forum!

but just as another bit of info.... Curley also do a carbon fibre front end

ive got a 2 piece curely caron front, and its amazing!

an hour or so with a file had it fitting perfectly, its really nice,a nd its SO light!

mine cost £276.13 including VAT and postage.

its LOVELY!

only thing to watch out for it flooring it in the wet on roundabouts! i really do notice the lack of weight over the front

STRUTH!, my mate paid £12 for one of ebay lights the lot! :grin:

i watched a metal one go for £60 ... he was extreemly luck to get realy CF for £12

[Jammy]

Are you sure it wasn't fibre glass miniman5? I've seen a FG front go for £26, really wished I'd bothered to bid on that now!
