Five50 Posted November 8, 2020 Report Share Posted November 8, 2020 (edited) Vinyl as per Cup 👍 A decent wrapping place should be able to do it. We’re all different but personally I really like the standard 380 Sport Wing. Edited November 8, 2020 by Five50 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you already got clear ppf where the shark fin goes? Ordered through Deroure website - that’s where all Lotus parts are ordered. Yes mine is fully PPF’d - shark fins will go on top👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold FFM C8RKH Posted November 9, 2020 Gold FFM Report Share Posted November 9, 2020 You can of course also order from TLF at a small discount but it all adds up. I saved around £120 on a front carbon piece for my 410 Sport for instance. 1 Quote Alcohol. Sex. Tobacco. Drugs. Chocolate. Meh! NOTHING in this world is as addictive as an Evora +0.

EX16FUN Posted November 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2020 There’s a lot of love for the 380 here ... liking the support for my suggestion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbert Camshaft Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 If you want to track your Exige keep in mind that the 380 exhaust exceeds the noise limits of most tracks - besides, no watercooled charge cooler... Therefore last year I decided for a new Exige 350 (Vivid Green) and applied the KomoTec phase EX460 upgrade - perfect decision! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny you should that, because that was exactly the car I spec'd this afternoon when thinking about new with some mods (Beast) versus 380 (Less beastly)! Did you play with the suspension and /or brakes too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbert Camshaft Posted November 12, 2020 Report Share Posted November 12, 2020 Yes, I did - but please keep in mind that my modifications are based on a 90% track use profile... Chassis: Nitron 46 2-way (great for track use but very noisy at low speed on B-roads, for street use I would recommend the very good and low-noise Ohlins "road and track" chassis) Transmission Oilcooler (track) Quaife LSD (track) KoBra 4-4 brakes (track - for road use maybe just the front axle if at all...) Forged wheels (track and street - just looks great and feels better) Exige Sport 350, EX460, Ohlins Road and track chassis. forged wheels - nothing left to be desired!!

EX16FUN Posted November 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2020 Would anyone like to put a case for 410 over the 380 for predominantly road use perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcx Posted November 13, 2020 Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 Well i test drove a 350 and a 380 and a 410 and i bought a 350. The 380 was noiser in a great way than the 350 but it didnt feel much quicker. Then i drive a 410 again around Hethel track and soon after i bought a 410. It really is a very different car than the 350 in so many ways. For me there is no contest between the 350/380 and the 410. But there is a chunk of money that separates them. Each to their own etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold FFM Ali tuck Posted November 13, 2020 Gold FFM Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 Had a 350 which I loved - drove a 410 and my god they are miles apart - the urgency and pick up is relentless , totally different car- bought an evora🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go on - get yourself over to the dark side.....in the long run, it’ll be the place to be😉🏆 stunning looking Exige is it fire Red? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbert Camshaft Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 This is why I decided against a 410 and got myself a 350 exhaust noise (to noisy for trackdays) carbon tailgate (ugly to my eyes....) tail lights (ugly....) manifolds (kats) are the same as with the Sport 350 carbon seats (too narrow) no LSD Michelin Cup2 tires Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EX16FUN Posted November 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 Thanks to all of you ... 410 is the most accomplished car, with the 430 heritage vs the 380 having the 350 heritage which is the more modest approach and being 2/3 years old, offering a vfm proposition ...

Popular Post EX16FUN Posted December 1, 2020 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 So just to add an update ... got really close to a 380 purchase, but in the end, the 410’s ‘430 heritage’ was too much to resist and the deal I was offered was ‘just too good to miss’, honest 🤪. The principle of Nitron adjustability, remarkable engine response, and the way it sits on the road (tracks will be superb I am sure), it just feels like what I always hoped my garage car would offer. Oh and the wife loved the colour too, so it was a no brainer! 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
