Which Nosecone?

Well I've got to the stage of looking at nose cones, bonnets etc, or at least I've got to the thinking stage.

Just wanted to know what the options are for nose cones that fit a book chasis.

From what I've seen the lolocost one is pretty cheap and loloquality so I plan to avoid it.

Has anyone looked at the GRP from www.acesportscars.com?

Thanks,
Simon

not physically looked at a lolo, but from what I've read on the forum, people have complained about distortion and other disfigurations - or were they the unluck few?
Just checked out the fluke - its just a shade outside of my budget! I wouldn't want to blow the whole £250 in one go now would I...! Maybe I can get a lolo and cover it in chav stick on fake carbon fibre and pretend its a fluke?

I bought a complete body from GTS. It fitted the 'book' chassis a treat, delivery took a while, but worth the wait.

Cheers,

The GTS delivery times are much better now that they have their own GRP guy there.
The advantage with there stuff is that its about 2" taller in the scuttle/bonnet/nose area.
