c/f front splitter and rear spoiler

[R1cky]

Dunno if anyone is interested but i spoke to a company today about having the laguna splitter and the standard rear spoiler made in c/f. Was wondering how many people would be interested in this depending on the price. Gotta take a splitter and my spoiler to him in a couple of weeks so i'll know more then.

interested in spoiler definatley , do you not fancy doing the boot lid as well?:-D

 

[Jgti-R]

definate for spoiler mate! HELL YEAH!

lol my thoughts have come true defo interested in a carbon rear spolier will it be exactly like the standard one if so im defo in.

 

[R1cky]

yeah should be exactly the same as the standard spoiler mate......... well thats the plan

 

[frp]

sounds good! what are they called? could we see pics of their work?

 

[R1cky]

Go by the name of streamline carbon. They have got a web site but it aint too good. I'll give em a bell tomorrow and get him to email me some pics!

Just a thought.........

about the front splitter, remember it's prone to close encounters with sleeping policemen and curbs e.t.c. so on a practical note it's quite good that the Luguna/espace splitters is very flexible

and the point of a carbon fibre rear spoiler is obviously just for show ?? as the standard one is plastic and weighs feck all already

Steve, some people just have too much money.

I thought the same about the front splitter as mine has got more than it's fair share of scratches on it.

 

[Major_Sarcasm]

My thoughts exactly, going to carbon on the rear spoiler is likely to weigh more than the standard one.

My old Black R had a Laguna splitter and it was beat to shit. Don't think I'd wanna splash out on a carbon version. Imagine that all scratched up, it'd look even worse :lol:

 

[R1cky]

Yeah your pretty much spot on about the splitter would more than likely take a pounding. tbh i didn't give it much thought. Rear spoiler would just be for looks. Just trying to do something i little different thats all. Fed up with seeing all the evo/scoobs etc dripping with c/f while we get pretty much nothing for the R

 

[abyss]

its not that you cant get the stuff for the R its just people buy very little c/f because the pulsar already is 200-300kg lighter than scoobies and evo's

Would people entertain having a c/f radiator plates made, I know there were a few alloy ones made some time ago, but a c/f would look nice... :-D

Yeah, I'd do that if it could be made strong enough

 

[R1cky]

ok i'm man enough to admit it when i've had a bad idea. rad plate sounds like a cool idea though id be up for that

Steve is correct the rear spoiler is already very light, otherwise I would have made it in G/F when I done the tailgate. Also agree with the front splitter as it will get knocked no doubt and C/F does not give it will just crack.
Although I will agree that it will look good
