Greeks Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Anyone ever made up plastic wings for their saloon?Would it be worth doing so?I have the chance of doing so ... I guess it might make sense to do some extras Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted User Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Bonnet and bootlid yes... wings are a wee bit too structural to do in GRP I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greeks Posted June 14, 2006 Author Share Posted June 14, 2006 I guess I could make those.I hadn't realised the outer wings were so important structurally.I guess door skins a la Dave Sideways could be an option, too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heraldcoupe Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Outer wings have been made in GRP previously, I have seen a few cars with them fitted. Certainly not a good idea though, the wings add to the strructural integrity of the shell,Cheers,Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russell Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Smith and Deakin have 2000 wings listed http://www.smithanddeakin.co.uk/T-Z.htmHave no personal experience of them, so I'm not sure of their fitment quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
