Don't worry; if it can't be in the post tomorrow the proverbial ship will have sailed.

Won’t one for another car fit? Like an MK one...

The one I got looked like it would fit quite a few scuttle widths as it was quite flexible. Maybe if you put on the scuttle width it would help?

The issue is that as far as I am aware, most aeroscreens from other manufacturers are designed to fit on a lip on the scuttle. Mine does not have that lip. If someone has something potentially suitable, bring it on...

Hmm I'm sure mine didn't have a flange or anything, it was just a simple curved shape which was to be riveted on. Worse case if one did, you just get a grinder and quickly remove it.

If you've got a panther, then you could always venture onto eBay and look at the black fibreglass double bubble unit? It won't fit a W7DE though, I know that for a fact.

Else, you could always do what I did and dig deep into your pockets and buy two genuine Caterham perspex aero screens, but at about £75 each, they're not cheap.

Or push the boat out and give Carbon Mods a call, and pick up one of their shiny carbon fibre aeroscreens. From memory, I think they're about £160. Or try Fluke motorsport, I remember seeing they did CF units.

Again, the only company I've dealt with is Caterham, who have been really helpful, so can't comment on the rest. But I'm sure there's a solution out there for you, you just need to hunt....
