EOI: carbon fibre vac/inf boot

Postby lightyear » Wed Nov 25, 2009 1:50 pm

I was talking to michael down at P.I on the weekend. He suggested that he would be interested in a lightweight c.f boot. If there are any other motorsport guys after one let me know. I will mould my fibreglass boot as it has a built in spoiler/lip. And let me know if you prefer oem latch type or bonnet pins to secure it.

Interested for sure

Race only for me so bonnet pins are fine
would be good with a slip in mechanism at the front and flush pins at the rear though
Seeing your hardtop latch design I am sure you could come up with something nifty and a bit more attractive than the old style bonnet pins

Just thought I'd show an interest. I'd rather just the standard latches but I could use bonnet pins as well. Main issue for me though is it can't have a spolier for the race series we compete in (2F).

I'm interested, but I'm after more of a road car solution.... NA6.
