Nose Cone
Tommes - 6/2/18 at 02:50 PM

As the subject is already telling, i am looking for a new nose cone for my dax rush.
Everything that goes in to the donkervoort or the MNR Vortex direction is appreciated.
Used or damaged is no big deal.
Also hints were to buy new ones are welcome. I found a nice one in holland in an onlineshop some time ago but forgot the name.

these guys should be able to make you a new one - they have the original moulds for the rush:

Ah, actually I have the original one. It is OK. Just looking for another look for the front of the car.

Most of the rush's panels are a bit of a different shape from other sevens, so you might find they need a fair bit of work to fit
(not sure exactly how different the nose is)

Modifying the one you have might be an easier option....

Yeah, i already found out.
But this is not a real issue, cutting, trimming, filling, all works with GRP are no real issue.
I don't want to rework the original cone because the shape is totally different to the MNR cone for example.
And i want to keep this one to be able to drive.

So, still waiting for hints or used and damaged parts.

Im in the process of modifying an MNR Vortex nose to fit my MK, It took me a long time to source one as MNR wont sell you one without a chassis number and evidence of your ownership making them mega rare.

A total stroke of luck i found someone local to me who had 2 in the back of their shed, which i bought. I may decide to sell the spare one once im finished fitting etc, it needs a bit of filling and painting.
