Hi all, what have you used to cover the rear boot, the top part of a MK INDY with full roll cage (i.e plastic, alloy, carbon fibre,) any pictures would be nice, also best place to buy the material from.

soft cover - message the guy on ebay and he sends you a template, you fill it in and he posts out the completed soft vinyl cover - he will probably be able to match the green of your car - or just add green piping.

6mm plywood PVA'd and covered with Black vinyl. Dead easy to do and easily shaped around roll bar stays etc.

Vinyl for me too. Got a local boat chandlers to make up one for me. £40.

Vinyl covered MDF at present but got a mate at Radical Racing to make me a stiffened carbon sheet, just gota get round to fitting it. One of my winter projects!!!

I went the soft cover route via the Ebay guy, he's a member on here too but doesn't post very often.

I went with that option mainly because it covers up the rear panel to side panel "bodgy" bit!!

Vinyl covered ply for me as well. Cheap and fairly robust.

Milsons the guy you need to speak to for a vinyl cover.

Mine was £30 and, as I have the MK welded in roll bar, it should be the same as your full cage at the rear. Just need to have a hairdryer handy to help give the cover a bit of stretch when you first fit it then once it's been on a while it's just about perfect.

I'll be contacting him soon as I want to know if he can do a tonneau cover as well.

Alu on wood.

Mean to include a pic. How do I do?

I trimmed ABS Carbon Lookie-likie sheet with the edging I've used for all my edges and used HD Velco to secure it.

Works for me.
