Donkervoort Nose
Does anyone have blueprints or 3D drawings of Donkervoort Nose... I'm planing to make it myselfe...
I have some expiriance with fiber , I made this woofer box for my Mondeo 
I live in Serbia so no place to buy anything for Locost ... and Donkervoort is a litle bit nicer than super 7 , modern if I could say ...
any help , more than welcome!

I made some small bits before this like adapers from fiber to put speakers on some cars witch didnt have the place in front door for it ...
I would say it is 3rd thing from fiber that I have done myselfe...
have some pics how did I do it...
make a frame out of MDF for woofers and ports
than took nylon fabric from millinery and strech it over the MDF frame and staple it with staple gun
Than do the polyester resign over everything
than do the fiberglass from inside , it's a bit tricky but than you save a lot of time , no need for filler , maybe a little, than primer (I
done with poliester primer it's harder and can be apply very thick), send it and paint it...
and a car looks so far like this on 17" alloys from Wolf Concept , I tinted the windows recently but dont have a pic.
And at last what about the nose from Donkervoort

I've only seen pictures of Donkervoort cars, never any detailed drawings of parts or construction, they like to keep things exclusive so they
cost a lot. If you can make a sub box from a bit of cloth and some mdf it should be easy enough for you to make a nosecone once you have something to
fit it to for measurements.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

well I hope till next weekend I'll do the chassis, but thinking to make from MDF front end and start making a nosecone. Just need more pics ,
front , side (without the wheel if possible), top ... so I can make ortogonal projection of it ... If I make something out it wont be a problem to
send it to UK if there is inerested parts for it.
anyway how much is the standard fiberglass nose for Locost with/withou mudguards in UK
