Fibre glass wing Makers !
 
Well I have been thinking about these lately as there are just none available. I've found this place in retro cars but they replied stating they want to see a pair of wings before the give a price. What do you reckon ??? :cool:

at least they are uk based, would be great to have a set of non rustable front wings. no point them copying mine, as they would be half price as i have only half the wing that hasnt rusted away :D

thats a great start all we need know is for someone to send them a wing and get a quote at the end of the day we have nothing to loose but everything to gain as im sure all s12oc will by a pair or two so atlest the discount will be instant just on the sheer volume nice one mate

Yes the guy PM'd me and asked for a pair of wings to take dimentions and to generally look at to see how much work is involved. He will then give us a price but I'm sure they will give a discount on club multiples. Only question is, whos got a decent pair off the car to send them ??? :rolleyes:

I thought it was in better condition and was hoping to swap it for a new front bumper..

northerner 23-07-2006 22:12

Dan keep it as it does not look to bad and will be easily repaired. If you get any more let me know :cool:

What are you after mk1 or mk2? I think it was decided on thread a while back somewhere....

I have a feeling it was mk1

umpkin 23-07-2006 23:18

yeah i think the majority was mk1 on the other thread.

mk1 would poss be best to copy, as mk2 has holes in for the flashing, but then again we could just fill them in. so not really much diff tbh.

Whos near Worcester then ???
 
Right whos is near Worcester WR3 that could pop down in their Silvia and get this firm to look at the wings to get a price ? It seems there is loads of us who would buy them as they are getting scarce !!! Come on you know you want to !!! :furious

You can count me in on a set of front wings. I need them for a car I ve not long aquired for restoring. The only bodywork problem is apart from faided paint, guess what, the front wings.
Has any one tried to get these new. I replaced my front wings when I resprayed my main S12 6 yrs ago. They where Gen Nissan at aroung £120 or so then. Boy do I regret that, as my orridinals were repairable & better quality.
Just a suggestion. If they are still available new then couldn't we buy a set to give to this company as a templete. Expensive way of doing it I know, but in the long run it might work out cheeper for all.
