See my website (under "Purely Cosmetic" ). These are the highest quality items you can imagine, proper F1 quality (he does old F1 car bodywork for private hill climb cars etc) pre-preg carbon and not carbon overlaid fibre glass .

a word of advice,if you get a cambelt cover get the short one as you will scratch the full length one to pieces trying to fit it especially if you ever want to remove it again i now have a 2 piece one lol

Have you got a pic of them fitted? I was thinking of getting just the hockey sticks, and top spoiler? do they come with all the fittings screws etc, and holes ready drilled?

They are well worth the money i have some, much better in both quality and looks of the carbon GGR ones !!!, especially the lower splitter which is quite chunky.

Mike just sent you an email about prices for the hockey sticks, and stone deflector in carbon...

would you be able to provide all the screws etc? do they just bolt on, no drilling involved?
