Any news on a carbon fibre version?

Also what do you do with the standard metal arches to accomodate the larger wheels? Do you need to cut much out to fit these? I guess the less suspension travel the less that needs to be chopped.

You just need to cut as much arch as you need to allow for wheel travel mate

Fair enough... I had a play with laying up some carbon fibre in uni and can now fully appreciate the effort involved! I just thought they'd look good in carbon on my Red classic, would highlight the arches I reckon. Will be after some in one form or another at one point when I can gather further funds. Looks good though.... more pikkys soon?

What size spacer do you think I'd need to run with those white wheels we were talking about? Group buy on with cdf at the moment.

can you edit that post ABW?

How are you supposed to get the bumpers off? Just undo the bolt/screws on the bumpers?
