Hah, that's something else :D The fact that it sounds rude is why I like that word so much though...

Hi Liz!
All sorts of places! JLH is a good starting point although I'm not sure how many moulds they currently have after having a fire a while back. I'm sure Jonathon can tell you though :)

Get yourself a second hand steel one (£50 for a decent nick) and have it sprayed - another reason why steel is good is that it's recycling old parts (if you go for 2nd hand that is) and lessens waste! I got one from minor mania last year but most MM garages will have them come up fairly regularly.

if the panels need replacing and will cost far less in glassfiber and will also benefit by loosing 40kg
Thats like turfing the rear axle out. what i am saying thats some considerable weight saving. the f/g wings i have have got the same lines as the steel ones. I agree with jonathan saying that there easier to work withto get afinal fit. ps don't waste your money on cheap wings as these are more likely to be the ones with bad lines and will probably rust away within a short while.
