Thanks chaps! The car I first saw with these fitted is currently for sale at Woodcote, having been bought by them from a private seller in North Yorkshire. It was him who told me about them. However, it may be that the owner prior to him made them from some form of pliable carbon look overlay. Whatever way it was achieved, it was a very effective way of covering up all the small cracks that appear towards the front of the wing without the cost of new wings.

Andy, Thanks for your comments. I will keep an open mind until I see the first car again. Greg

Thanks for the thought, but no, these were standard Academy wings with a moulded carbon cover over the fronts.
-
That may be the answer. I feel sure that someone sells these but I have drawn a blank so far.

I looked at that as well, but the ones I saw were quite thick moulded sections fitted over the wing.

Nope, the front cycle wings, from the leading edge to about six inches back.

No, these were moulded carbon sections fitted over the existing wing and apparently bonded in place. I saw them on a few cars a Stoneleigh and one of the cars I viewed while looking to buy. Any thoughts appreciated! Greg

Hi. I am new on here, having just purchased my first Caterham, a 2009 ex Academy model. As with most cars there are light cracks near the leading edge of the front wings. I have seen several cars with carbon fibre covers extending back six inches or more, covering the front portion of the wing and at the same time hiding any existing cracks. Does anyone on here know who sells these? Thanks. Greg

Do you still have this? If so I will have it! Greg
