[color=#000000ost_uid0]Well I know how to source carbon fibre body bits for an SP20 ......at a price.... from DG Motorsports in the States.

But a good mate of mine is looking for a carbon fibre front mudguard for a Suzuki Hayabusa. Now THAT is performance



Anybody got any suggestions where we might look?[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid1]Our bonnets aren't that heavy so wont be that much of a
weight loss you would have more result by taking out the
spare tyre. Or is it simply for the looks factor ??
