FS: Brand new Aluminium side panels
thefreak - 15/4/09 at 11:51 AM

Had a pair of side panels cut and bent to shape for my locost but I've since changed the plans for them.

They're 2m x 330mm high and have a square U shape bend at the top to fit over the box section and a square L shape at the bottom to rivet/fix to the bottom of the chassis. The bends have been done to take a 1" box tube, so will fit a 25mm one as well.

One does have a hole cut out for the exhaust

Only looking for what I paid for them, which was £60.

If nothing else they could be used as offcuts to trim other parts of the car as they're a nice good length.

They've still got the protective plastic over the face too.

Collection would be preffered but let me know where you are and may be able to arrange dropping them off as I get around a bit

I'll get some pics up tonight.

Sorry that I can't help (different car) but where did you get them made?

Many thanks

A local aluminium supplier. they had the presses to cut it straight and neat, as well as the tools to put a proper bend on rather than me butchering it with my mallet

Hi. What thickness are they and where are you? Cheers

They're 2mm thick and I'm in Derby, but travel to Bristol regularly... and next friday evening I'm in Reading and Bracknell picking up my screen
