Rick 0 Posted May 18, 2005 Well up for a group buy on one of these Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhatVR6 0 Posted May 18, 2005 I bought a Lupo one off german ebay, got good service. it was about £35 I think. bloke called "carprotect" (i think the name was Mesut Eser, athough I may have him confused with another german ebay seller). I presume it's mailto:[email protected] as it comes up on my AOLIM I could mail him and see if he'd do a group buy for us? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G60Jet 1 Posted May 19, 2005 the american dealer do two, one for each body, however i think they may be discontinued now. there was a guy selling them on ebay. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted May 19, 2005 as well as protecting from stone chips these will also do a good job of hiding them too... Am quite tempted to get one if anyone finds out a supplier 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ashvdub 0 Posted May 19, 2005 these are the only ones i've seen at just under £30 if any ones interested? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ashvdub 0 Posted May 19, 2005 not too sure what they're like fit wise though thats why I want a few different options really. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSV 0 Posted May 19, 2005 They look good for the money, would like to see a few options. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevemac 0 Posted May 19, 2005 I think they look absolutely awful - I'd sooner have stone chips than one of those Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JBOB 0 Posted May 19, 2005 I think they look absolutely awful - I'd sooner have stone chips than one of those Id have to agree with you Steve. Ive always thought they look bad and cant see why anyone would put one anywhere near their car. But people have different tastes and £30 seems like a good price :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dinkus 10 Posted May 19, 2005 Should I make comments about girls and bras? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NickVR6 0 Posted May 19, 2005 I'll buy one if we do a group buy? Will be having my bonnet and a few dinks done, and want to keep it that way. They look wierd but then id just have it on for the work trip. Plus im just about to post a mudflap question so im very wierd anyway.......... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billinjah 0 Posted May 20, 2005 me too having a full respray done in the summer so can hide the chips for now then protect it after the spray! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted May 20, 2005 Does anyone know what the weird sticking up things on the bra are for? Am sure I have seena better looking example... will have a search! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bally 0 Posted May 20, 2005 Does anyone know what the weird sticking up things on the bra are for? Am sure I have seena better looking example... will have a search! Im not keen on the sticking up bits either.. post on here if you find anything phil :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NickVR6 0 Posted May 20, 2005 Any news on these. I saw one at the inters that had no sticky up bits, and it looked thicker and softer rather than the fake leather look, it was soft and padded. I assume they hook round the bonnet pins to prevent theft?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NickVR6 0 Posted May 20, 2005 Just thought, the sticky up bits prob stop the centre from flapping whilst on the move? ie force the air up? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted May 20, 2005 Thats quite possibly it.. just another thought - you'd have to put this on for shows or driving on hot days only otherwise water will get trapped in the bra and existing stone chip will start to rust like crazy! Also could the constant fitting and removal of these end up scratching your paint? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted May 20, 2005 Found the pic I was looking for - the sticky up things are spaced further apart and look much better IMO however this is on an early bonnet so may not work on the late one :? Pic taken from Tempest's Germany thread Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NickVR6 0 Posted May 20, 2005 Nice wheels, umm, anyway i want one with or without those spoiler bits! Just going to surf now to see what i can come up with. Any idea how much i should expect to pay to get my bonnet resprayed? Rough idea as im quote hunting tommorrow! Presume i need the whole bonnet done rather than messing about with blending that never works and prob takes them longer anyway! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
