Fibre glass wings

[dannyg1]

Hi,
Does anyone know where I can buy Firbre glass front wings for a E30 325?

Thanks,
Daniel

[rigbo]

why would you buy fibreglass?

[dannyg1]

light wieght...

[maggspower]

There is very little weight to be saved by using GRP wings as the steel ones are so light. The bonnet is worth while doing though, as is the sun roof

[dannyg1]

good advice. thanks.

Just lose the sunroof and it's Tray. It's all weight in the wrong place on the highest point on the car

It would probably save a good 10kgs up there

[dannyg1]

The car has already lost the sun roof and it has a fibre glass bonnet. So I Just thought that taking as much weight out of the front of the as possible was a good idea to help the balance...

Front wings are about £200 a pair and save about 2kgs each.

where can I buy them at that price from Jason?

[BadDave]

Smith and Deakin springs to mind
But it appears as if they only list the M3 style ones

[rix313]

£200 for 4kg is good in the racing world!

Isn't the rule £1000 per kg lost is good going.

What have you replaced the sun roof with?

[nickso]

theres a bloke on here who sells them. forgotten his name though so thats fuck all use

[scottidog]

i think the money/weight ratio is way too high on this one. 2kg isnt enough surely

[nickso]

4 kg for the pair isnt bad. depends on how much you want to lose the weight. im putting a pair on the shed in my sig.

[e21Jason]

I used to sell them but my supplier went public.

sunroof is replaced with a metal insert. You can't tell it was ever there.

talking about the sunroof has anyone got a guide to replacing it?

[fuzzy]

do you always have to declare GRP panels to the insurance? im sure ive read it in the small print on a policy previously?

Yes I think so, they'll just use it as an excuse not to pay out when you need it most, like when someone takes the front end off your car.

[Turbo-Brown]

It's best to declare any deviation from standard I reckon.

Seems they don't care about lots of things, but if you've told them (and got a record of telling them!) they can't complain if you claim.
