Gold FFM mayevora Posted May 30, 2018 Gold FFM Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 I am sure this must have been asked before but can't locate anything. How easy is it to refit either a 430 or GTE front wraperound bumper/splitter bodypanel to a Sports Racer? - and are they even available to buy aftermarket? I am not looking to devalue the car in any way and wouldn't do anything where it couldn't be reversed back if wanted/needed. Reason is nothing more than a cosmetic - prefer the more aggressive front end. Thanks 1 Quote Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk - that will teach us to keep mouth shut!

Bravo73 Posted May 30, 2018 Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 A genuine GTE bumper? Not very easy. a) You will struggle to find one. b) The front track is wider so it is much more than just putting on a new bumper. A new GT430/410 bumper? Much easier. If you could find one. Lotus won’t (currently) sell you one.

Gold FFM mayevora Posted May 30, 2018 Author Gold FFM Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 Thanks Jonny - links are useful 👍 I probably should have said the GTE 'look' 😊 Quote Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk - that will teach us to keep mouth shut!

Bravo73 Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 I’m sure that Sherman/Hethelsport can deliver to Europe. But @YvoTuk/elise-shop.com already has an agreement with Win-Ace for European supply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete757 Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Yvo, is all your carbon stuff imported from HethelSport? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bravo73 Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 I don’t think so. I’m pretty sure that some of it comes from HKFever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy1969 Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 @mayesprit mansory build 2 different kit, a "wide" one, original gte, and a "normal" one, so maybe the latter something to think about - I think @Michadams had one .....if I remember right 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Registered Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) Can someone supply a £100-£200 front splitter? The komo tec price is rediculous. Also how much labour would these 400/GT430 front bumpers cost to fit including painting. I am assuming not a few hundred quid.

Bravo73 Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 It will be a few hundred quid. It just depends on how you define ‘few’... 😳 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete757 Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 'Few' in 'the old days', meant '3'! So 300 smackers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete757 Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 Does anyone do a replacement CF rear 'wing' for the 'normal' Evora... without standing it up etc? Just a straight swap for the OEM integral 'wing'... I don't want to go 'bling'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin P Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 There was a mansory one, but ludicrously expensive. https://www.shop.britishracinggroup.com/Mansory-Carbon-Fiber-Rear-Spoiler-for-Evora-BRG-MANEVRS.htm Quote Blessed with the competence to be a slave to the incapable. Currently without a Lotus, Evora 400 Hethel Edition in Racing Green with Red leather and 2010 Evora N/A in Laser Blue and 1983 Lotus Excel LC Narrow body in Ice Blue all sadly gone.

pete757 Posted June 3, 2018 Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 It is rather pricy!!! 😧 I wonder how many they have sold... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21gg Posted June 3, 2018 Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 Not many! I daren't ask how much replacement gte panels would be if I ever needed one. I've not seen any other standard ones, you could get yours wrapped/dipped or possibly even carbon covered? Gav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not seen as having much of a market and one of the aftermarket suppliers (Junks if I remember correctly) said as much. That said I think you are the third or fourth person to enquire about availability. 1 Quote Blessed with the competence to be a slave to the incapable.
