daveclark79 10 Posted June 17, 2016 I'm having to pay £600 for one pair, the price at the start is for a bulk order, so if anyone wants them after pics etc. Then I'll see what I can do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted June 17, 2016 Certainly is intriguing. My front wings aren't in the best shape I don't think and was considering getting some painted up. Might hold out and see what becomes of this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jon_vr6 1 Posted June 17, 2016 Snap mine have been bad for years. Carbon wings would certainly put a stop to that ☺ Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daveclark79 10 Posted August 1, 2016 long story short, they were utter cack. Could have made better ones myself out of animal dung. I've sent them back and now looking at 3D printed arches, but as Corrado ownership goes, I have to sort other problems out first..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted August 1, 2016 The ones to get I think are the spoonfed tuning ones in fiberglass - they look really good BUT they won't ship to the UK, probably because of size / cost. Perhaps if a large enough order was placed however, they might consider it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daveclark79 10 Posted August 1, 2016 I've been looking at those and they look the business, I emailed them some time ago and the problem is the Import/Export taxes apparently, it nearly doubles the price (or so I've been told) If Trump gets in there might be a silver lined trade deal...... here's hoping.

Tough one. Reproduction wings at a good price.. but then end up with a psychopath in the White House. Hmmm.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daveclark79 10 Posted August 1, 2016 Big dilemma, pay a racist in a country ran by a nutcase for front wings that don't rust? Hmmmm.... More to the point, why the hell does no one make them here in the UK? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jon_vr6 1 Posted August 1, 2016 I emailed then a couple of months back and he said they make them. Dont think the website has been updated in a while have a look on their facebook page Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted August 1, 2016 900 quid isn't too bad I guess though certainly not cheap. Original wings are still available but cost more and will rust! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quicky1980 0 Posted August 2, 2016 I have LWS CF wings on mine (as well as bonnt and rear tailgate) Passengers side fitted no probs but drivers needs a bit of fettling to fit. In addition, the two tabs that fix the wings to the A pillar are missing so you only have the bottom fixing to hold the rear of the wing in place Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g0ldf1ng3r 15 Posted August 2, 2016 i have been thinking of CF wings & bonnet in place of painting them when the VR has a full respray but dont know if it would leave me many £'s for the rest of the car Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Graphite 0 Posted August 3, 2016 The CF wings were made using wings I supplied to LWS as a pattern. I had one of the first pairs to be made that LWS were happy with for my Hillclimb build. They have no returns for arch liners, I trial fitted them and they need playing with as the metal of the chassis that meets the front edge (where it tucks into the return of the wing around the headlamp) is rather flexible and will be different on every chassis. Other than that they were good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
