Default carbon boot lid and spoiler (updated 21-03-09 now with bonnet)

hi guys got a carbon boot lid and spoiler the other day from xsport racing see my sig for link like to say a big thank you to Jay and dicko (paul dickinson) this is the prototype that jay made so has some very minor imperfections but the price was adjusted for this and obviously the production ones will be perfect and very light!!!!! btw they are currently putting together lots more bits in carbon so give them a call with your requirements

this was the first one that jay made he has modified the mould now to make it perfect so mine came at a slight discount but if you contact xsport i'm sure they will be happy to quote you i think but dont quote me around 650 for the boot and spoiler

Mac I remember when you were first talking about this, and at the time I had a Flint Grey saff, and thought it'd look fine on mine. But now I've got a white saff, so it's going to look like yours if I get one... which I'm not sure about... Saff looks like a taxi anyway LOL.

Sod it though, I still want one, lovely bit of kit - you got any pics of the inside? Would like to see how the hinges connect etc.

mate will try and get some pics up of the inside it is a fibreglass base but mounts in exactly the same way a conventional boot lid would it will look a lot better when finished with bonnet and a few other bits am thinking about a cage 'couple of bucket seats and track it after seeing dave ridges sapph in fast ford this month !!!!
