I need a new turbo heatshield, cam belt cover and strut brace...

Im pondering on the idea of going for Carbon or for polished? Can you get a carbon fibre effect strut brace? I know Mike sells the carbon heatsheilds and cam covers, but still not sure what route to go.

What have you all got? pics... suggestions?

I will add that I have got a Carbon Fibre splitter and hockey sticks on, so this was swaying me towards the carbon, thou I have seen some really nicely finished turbo heatsheilds that look really nice, just like the originals but polished... any idea where these are from?

 

heres mine

 

Showoff

 

RADMAN - very nice, where did you get the strut brace from? looks the nuts!

 

lol,strut brace was a one off i had made

 

Looks good mate!

 

Is it proper carbon, or is it just carbon on top of normal alloy/steel brace?

Never noticed you've got Monte written on your rocker cover before, even more of a flash git...

 

it started out as an alloy brace and then i had it covered in real carbon fibre,so you get both strength and looks anyway, go and put your tank on,lol

 

Waiting for Paul Ripley to send it first...

I did actually have a proper carbon strut brace on my old car, a Honda

 

a honda never mind was it one of the flat type of braces,like a bar? as i think thats the only way you would get the strength in carbon

 

It was at least as quick as my Escort, and a lot less maintenance as well... But still, only fwd

Yes, it was almost flat... Steel at the ends as well, painted black, then fading over into the carbon.

 

carbon

 

Very nice Rene.... where did you get the strut brace from?

Im defo going carbon folks! its a pitty to cover up my new Kent Verniers thou!

 

The last time i spoke to marcus @ creative carbon he said he was going to make a cambelt cover with cutouts for the verniers
