Elise front crash structure
I am looking at buying a damaged elise, It has suffered damage to the front end so is missing a front clam shell, the radiator is missing and the crash structure is damaged. Just wondered if the damage to this structure would stop the fitting of a new clam shell once the radiator and cover is back in place? I dont want a perfect elise, just thought it would be fun on trackdays if i can fit a front clamshell and windscreen.
Thanks in advance for your help. http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...ip/lotus-1.jpg |

 ) its more than doable for a track car. other than the rad. structure flopping around and providing the lower crash structure is ok for the front skid plate to mount to you should have no problem with the clam. |

You should put on a new or clean used crash structure no matter where it is driven.
I see that is not a Federal Elise. There are sources in the UK for NEW crash structures around 700 EUR if you want to avoid the dealer.
