don't know what that is... but i was told it's all carbon fiber... i'll check again, maybe i was misunderstood

*edit*

i have gotten clarification and since these are made using a wet layup, it does consist of some fiberglass. i apologize for the confusion

bump for clarification

I see in your thread topic these fit the Exige / Exige S. Are you going to offer anything to fit the Elise as well? Any idea how much extra the screens and mounting hardware would cost?

just selling the product.

uglyduck · 08-14-2007, 04:55 PM

it looks like a wet non-vacuum laminated lay-up, so there is one layer of carbon, backed with chopped mat. This makes the part much less expensive to make 1/4-1/3rd less and gives the carbon look. Unfortunately it tends to be heavy and not as strong as 100% carbon.

looks good, i need to save some $$$

bluejae · 08-16-2007, 06:56 PM

Only CF wings are reverie and they are not stock size.

Any photos of the car without the scoops on... showing the mounting hardware/brackets on the car? I'm want to see if this is something I can adapt to the Elise.

bluejae · 08-24-2007, 03:39 PM
