10uptobase Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 HiAm looking for advice on alternatives to CC's carbon nose and F/R wings on my 2007 S3 150 roadsport as wish to replace current original glass items as part of planned makeover (new paint job too.) I am running original wheels / tyre sizes.Looking for lower cost than CC but also good finish / ease of fitment / delivery time. Suggestions?thanksDave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadership Team RogNeedham Posted April 2, 2016 Leadership Team Share Posted April 2, 2016 Hi Dave,A question that has been asked often times before :)I did some research into this a couple of years ago. Ultimate Carbon are definitely worth a look. Or you could try Carbon Mods. When I looked these guys seemed ok but things may have changed since then - it's a bit a changing market as folks come and go.A little further afield (Germany) is Westermann Motorsport.Give each of them a shout and if you do a search for 'carbon' here on BC you'll find some folks commenting on previous posts with some more first hand experiences.PS - whereabouts are you? - I'm just north of Derby. Happy to chat if required. Blatmail me your infoCheersRogGeneral Secretary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10uptobase Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 Hi RogerAh, how soon they forget - I must have one of those faces, or 7's... (I believe we both worked for the same off highway company - I have since moved on.)Thank you for the leads however - I have already got a quote from Westemann. Will check out the others (any idea if nose cones come with catches / pre drilled?)thanks againDave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Stewart Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I recently did this and ended up getting nose and wings from Ultimate carbon.I think Carbon Mods no longer supply carbon for Caterhams and Mog carbon is wet lay?Saying that, i have carbon half doors from Mog which i'm very happy with but if i was looking for wings and nose again, Ultimate carbon would be my choice.

AntonyH Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 +1 for Ultimate Carbon front wings. Not the best company at replying to emails in a particularly timely manner, and they're made to order so it's about a 4-week delivery (or mine was, this time last year), but the wings are great.
