Enchidna (kitCARBON)

Sometime ago I reported that I had a problem with Theo Dragonas trading as Enchidna Sportscars. I had ordered some carbon fibre products which seemed good value the only trouble was that after many weeks I still had not received them.
This went on for several months and at last they were delivered today. The quality was very good and Theo had also included some heatproof material free of charge. Apparently the delay was caused by being let down by a supplier. I would recommend the quality of Theos work and it's also very good value for money, however, when ordering try to tie him down to a time scale to avoid disappointment . Theo now informs me his company is now known as kitCARBON.

Thank you Barry for your nice words.
The problem wwa indeed caused by problems with my last material supplier. I actually paid him quite a lot of money and received nothing more than fresh air. OK, this is a matter of the past now, although i am trying to get my cash back through my bank. I know this is something that noone cares about but i thought i had to mention this just because people might think that i was a bad person trying to get money and send nothing. Actually i am trying very hard to cope with my orders and currently trying to extend my product range too.

Barry, it would be perfect if you couls take some time and post a picture or two of the heatshield here. And i am really looking forward to see it fitted to your car. I really hope to regain confidence to future customers from here. Thanks for the time spent to read this!

Cheers,
Theo

Steve, the price of my aeroscreen is 110GBP with free shipping to the UK (and Europe). You can buy it on eBay here:

kitCARBON aeroscreen

The aeroscreen shown there is made of carbon-kevlar 2x2 twill fabric. It can be made of carbon fiber for the same price. Rescued attachment DSC00966.JPG

Echidna, good to see you back as I have been waiting for you to re-appear

Do your rear carbon guards fit on the MNR rear wheel arches

Thanks for the welcome!
I am not sure whether they fit to MNR rear wings or not, but they will fit to MK rear wings for sure. If MK wings are similar to the MNR ones, then they may fit. Best option would be to send me a simple drawing with dimensions and check it for you.
Anyway, i dont see big differences after looking at your car (great car BTW) but you never can be sure just by looking at something.

Anyway i can make my rear wing guards to be flat, so they will not feature that wrap around radius at the wing edges, and if you give me your dimensions then it will be an easy job to make them for you.
