It arrived today. Not a bad bit of CF with a glossy gel coat. Not had much experiance of CF though. To be honest I'd guess a bit of ABS would probably be better for the job? But this ties in with the other bits of CF (effect) on my bike?

WHat ones does everyone use or you recommend?

I didn't realise you where in Basildon, I've been doing a bit of work there over the last few weeks, I left yesterday actually!

Cheers Luke

So Taipan,

Have you fitted your fender extender?

I haven't got around to ordering mine yet and was wondering how well yours fits?

How about a picture or two!

Cheers Luke

You stuck it to your bike with no more nails?

Why not drill some holes?

I dont like the look of bolts, although I will with the next one. I've fitted one before with no nails and another with sikaflex with good results, or at least they were on the bikes still when I sold them. For some reason this never took properly. Oh well win some lose some!
