Hood and Screens Manufacturer
simonk - 10/10/10 at 10:13 PM

Good evening all.

It's that time of year, I've reviewed how much I drove the car this season and have come to the conclusion that I need a hood and sidescreens to get the most from the car.

Any recommendations for a company that will build bespoke hood and sidescreens for my Viento ??

Thanks all
Simon

Local sail makers loft for the hood and me for the wind deflectors

Soft bits for sevens.
Mine was the first viento the did so they made templates from the car (left it there for a week or two.) They may be able to use them for yours?

Howard Sands of Crowfield nr Ipswich. 01449 710006

Does a superb job on bespoke hoods for classic and vintage cars.

Only problem is he is always very much in demand and you may have to wait ... I did for 18 months for a hood for my old Merc but it was worth it.

Soft bits for Sevens wouldn't touch my car so I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole...

But vague, did they give a reason?
