I'm interested in a blank with bolts... I would probably grab 1, maybe 2 nose panels at the same time. Could you PM me if/when they are available. Cheers.
i didnt know you done carbon fibre 2 gonz......what dont u do mate.....haha.... so anyone know what is the actual weight difference between fibreglass and carbon fibre.....i would think much but obvious benifit is tat carbon is much stronger
only a bit lighter than fiber glass but you need to make it as thick as needed for the job as this is a external part that hold lights and needs to keep its shape it would be more for looks but still be lighter then the stock lights that are there now. And still stronger than fiber glass.
Received Panel Got the rear panel this morning - it looks fantastic, you do great work. Thanks, robZarb
totally forgot about this.....hey gonz did u source some LEDz.......anyone know how the lambo ones where like ademon?
The only lights I have come up with are clear LED lights to fit a R32 skyline and they will need to be pulled apart to take out the round light from the light panel that are made with. Trying to find Ferrari but can only get them from eBay over seas. Also have seen WRX round clear LED lights on eBay buy once again need to be pulled a part to get out the round lenses. Are they are not cheap. Somethink like this can be placed into my panel with flanged retuned hole for the light to sit back into. Hope that was explained properly.
LOL Gonz. I think you mean recessed for the lights.:biggrin: Also for c/f, I think they stick them in an autoclave? and heat them to get the strength? Anywho very nice work, good to see a lot of creativity:bow2:
The tail lights used on the Strosek kits were from a Fiat Coupe (I think that was it's name). They are a really good sized fit and look good. Ben
What's freight to Sydney (2154), Gonzo...?? I have several sets of Skyline lights - would it be a case of cutting the blank and marrying the Skyline support frames to the blank, or removing the lights and inserting them into cut-out holes?? Would love to have Ferrari-like extended lenses, but think cost would kill that... Skylines will have to do...
mm yes.. was afraid of this i actually hoped for a long light. similar to what we have now.. hmmm wonder whats in the hella book but im keen on one of these with some holes cut out to suit my lights but hahaah guess what i just found! now.. can i get the indicator in clear..
you could always source those led round lamps from z centre...right?....is that where you got the centre panel too?
no I made the panel myself I made up the panel then made a mould from it so I can make as many as I need to. Dont think they will just sell you the lights you need to buy the whole panel from them to get the lot. If I could find those lights here I would be selling the panel with them lights also.
Gonz, if you could come up with a complete solution, I'm sure you'd get plenty of takers. It's a bit hard for us mortals to imagine what to do with a piece of plastic panel and some lights you don't know what they look like and where to get. I for one, don't see how you could just drill some holes in a premade panel, mount some lights in there and make it look professional.
Still interested to buy rear panel, Gonzo... will be fitting Skyline lights; please advise freight charge to Sydney (2154) and bank details for payment. Thanks, Mike (mikemd)
