I've gone for carbon fibre because I think it looks better than stainless and at the end of the day its an exposed part of the car that needs protection.

Are there any photos of the carbon ones?
cheers

Pictures due soon, got samples for ones that are used on Elise and Exige....I'll post a piccy of them in the meantime.

I can post a piccy of the carbon ones at the week-end. Will have a VX220 logo on.

Thorney, any chance of one without the VX220 logo for us Speedster owners?

Thorney, There are a number of mods being made with details contained across a wide range of posts. I for one would really appreciate a page where a list of the parts, pics and cost etc were detailed without all the other comments from the various members. I know I lost track of the potential bits currently being designed, made etc. It's not essential but I wonder if we could at some time in the future we could have a dedicated page that we could all refer to. Maybe one which only you could update ? I thought this might also help drive up potential sales as I know some people get lost after a bit with lthe comments and lose track if things are being made or not. Appreciate this maybe a bit of work and it is only a thought to be considered.

Not found your photo. Am I blind or is fatherhood taking its toll on you?

Any chance of logo-free ones for us Speedster owners?

I think this will go in the merchandise link on the homepage

Speedster ones should be OK but we need permission from Opel to use the logo and thus far we've just got Vauxhalls, I'll chase it up. Everyone is right, the Trading Post section currently just has the club clothing in and the plan is for all these items to be placed in there with an on line ordering system, this all takes up huge amounts of time so I'm looking to automate a lot if I can. Also in the trading post will be all the official Vauxhall VX220 merchadise with links to them for purchase and links to trackday operators and calenders so we can easily sort mini group events for those who are keen. Another area planned is a download section where we can post routes for runs (only accessible to registered users), the entire Workshop manual for the car, and loads of other interesting stuff like screensavers etc. We'll soon be officially recognised by Vauxhall as the VX220 Owners Club and will be marketed/communicated to all the dealers hopefully by the end of this month.
