LOADS lol

I have a carbon hood (single sheet, super light) and FRP wings on mine, I want the hatch that Garry is making... sounds like a great product!

I wouldnt go with doors unless you have a serious rollcage with big door X bars.

Sounds like you\'ve got a great winter build!

i\'m doing my own panels for my rex and xe nova run around. got all the materials but was thinking of doing a few custom bits in my spare time for a bit of money.
a lad at work has just moulded the body of an audi tt in grp and transfered it onto a scirocco chassis. it cost him £800 for materials and there is no way you can tell it apart from a genuine tt externally. its been fully sva\'d and is his daily driver. quite amazing really.
hes given me a few ideas.
he used a fibreglass roof supported with a full roll cage. i would like to see a carbon roof on mine one day lol
