Carbon bits

Question time, people!

My GTS came with a carbon fibre dash, and although not ready to roll yet, I'm collecting more nicely-woven bits for it! I'm looking at sill protectors and stone chip guards for the rear arches predominantly, buy may be tempted by some chassis rail protectors for the footwell, and maybe other bits if the correct Brucie (price is right - awful pun).

Friend of mine with a Westfield has Carbon Mods dash and aeroscreen, and he's chuffed with them; couldn't recomend tthem enough to me - helpful, informative, and great service. But I know Fluke Motorsport also do bits n pieces.

Having looked at both their websites, Fluke do seem to be (quite a bit) more expensive, si I'm leaning more and more towards Carbon Mods.

Just loking for feedback on both companies really, or possible alternatives? My instinct is to use C/M, but I'm open to suggestions......

i bought my cycle wings from carbon mods and was very pleased with them, but that was when they were a bit less well known.

i also bought the aeroscreen from them which came and again was very good but the weave appeared a little on the thin side in one area but its hardly noticable unless you look very closely,

i have heard of a few let downs though (i won't mention names) but lets just say that as they as getting more popular and busy they seem to be letting the quality of their work slip a little, so a word of warning...

if you do buy anything from them, check it over THOROUGHLY & if its not 100% and your not satisfied send it back!

just my 2p's worth. HTH's





I love Pinto's, even if i did get mine from P&O!

I'm friends with Paul and Matt at Carbon Mods, so a bit biased.

But they have been extremely busy (working very, very long hours), to the point where Matt has now jacked his job in to work full time at CM.

All my stuff is first class, so I wouldn't worry.
