Ah, Plastics4performance! Had pinned them as a backup in case my rear window would crack on removal.
Fortunately for the wallet, it didn't.  ;D

Quote from: clive on November 01, 2022, 09:05:22 AMThanks Jamie, I wouldn't need sides and would stay with a new glass screen. Rear would save a bit of weight.
They do sell the rear screen for the 8 separately
All the best Clive

I dunno who had involvement in making this happen but thank you if it was you.

Yep, I finally managed to make contact with the support team at Tapatalk in the last few days and they fixed something at their end which has sorted the problem. Tapatalk seems to be OK, but not sure if there is an issue still with out of sequence posts? Looks OK to me, but Jon thinks there is still a problem? More info on that would be useful.

Hi Malcolm, not so much out of sequence, but what appears to be happening is tapatalk takes, for instance, the last 10 posts of each topic and repeats them again...... hopefully that make sense.

Hmm, maybe I'm looking at a different Tapatalk view then? I just did a side-by-side comparison of this topic with this post being numbered #2601 on the forum (viewed via Chrome). It will show as post #2602 when viewed on Tapatalk though, as on the forum (Chrome) the very first post is #0, but it's #1 on Tapatalk. So exactly the same posts displayed, in the correct order, no duplications, but a "step" error of one, due to numbering differences.

I can't see any repetition though?

So I was contacted by zircotec yesterday by their marketing team.

They were aware I've purchased all 3 forms they offer. Pic above shows ceramic coating, zircoflex form and zircoflex .

They feel I would make a good case study. Asked lots of questions about the build and asked if I was a member of any car groups.

Of course had to mention MRC. They may be in touch ?!?

It will be interesting to see if Zircotec do follow through with the Rotus as a case study. As you say, using all their products with a high EGT engine in a tight space with fibreglass body. Got to be good evidence there of how good their technology performs!
