....Just wondering - been looking, but haven't seen any except the guy in China, I PM'd but no response.

I think these and matching front louvers are too difficult for most CF production techniques. Shame.

contact Robert at british racing group he can get them. they are expensive due to the complex design.

Is there a cosmetic reason they need to stay as one?

The louvers wouldn't be hard to make if you can make each individually and attach them as a second stage. The differences in weave pattern wouldn't even matter, in context of the front, the weird angles would make it impossible to notice. The back square-ish ring around wouldn't even need to be carbon.

The only thing I can see being a problem is the heat from the engine and radiator. Even that is unlikely to be a problem, just something to check.

This all seems in the realm of weekend project rather than engineering nightmare. I think the hardest part would be getting louvers you're willing to break to make models.

I would buy a set! Maybe we can get HKFEVER to make some?

Actually, I've considered this same solution... Just place CF louvers in a slotted plastic frame. This would still require both CF and plastic fabrication though and the overall market might be too small to make this feasible.

Check with RLS.
