Contact http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/members/ChrisW/ to register as a trader
But I think its just plain bad manners, to post your wares on someone elses thread, by all means start your own, thats when you have paid to register
as a trader

SA-Fabrication, I think you maybe could have started off on this forum a little better - I doubt anyone minds a bit of competition but your posts are
coming across a bit aggressive (even if they were not meant that way) considering you've only just joined.
This realy is a good forum & full of helpful people, worldwide.
When your trader status is sorted, I think common courtesy would be to put up your own thread offering your services, posting on other peoples threads
who are offering a similar product already, seems a bit off to me.
Good luck with your venture, im sure you will get lots of interest, dont take what I have said as bad, just trying to help

I apologise if I may have upset anyone or come across ageessive, but to have all my posts deleted with no reason is fustrating.
The only reason I posted in here is because I though post was asking about diffusers.
I will go through the necessary procedure to register. Sorry I didn't realise there was such a procedure.
Regards
Steve Adkins

Errmm... bad manners indeed including the original poster advertising them in all colours, carbon fibre and the price!
Is that not blatant advertising?
All right for some but not the others eh?

My thought's exactly, I don't think the OP, Danny Keenan or MK Sportscars are registered traders. Are they?

Guys,
I dont want people to get out of control on this subject and what has happened in the last 24 hours, but many thanks for your support.
There are obviously some rules on this forum that control what people like my self can say. (not very clear) but I do not want to fall out with any
one over this. The reason my posts probably came across aggressive last night it that its is highly frustrating to spend 15 mins setting up an account
in good faith only to have all my post deleted, with no prior warning or notification.
I have come to this forum in good faith to supply all kit car owners with unique products at very reasonable prices. I am not here to take business
away from anyone. As far as I am aware there is no one else near me that offers this kind of service.
Now then, lets all get along... please.
Happy building,
Steve Adkins

God know why but MK seem to get away with trading without being a trader on here but everyone else has different rules. I have bookmarked your site
S.A, i'll be in touch after my IVA.

I have just read the policy on traders and it goes like this:
"A 'trader' is defined as anyone who posts more than five posts advertising goods for sale in any calendar month, and any person
making a regular profit from exposure gained from posts on LocostBuilders"
Considering the use of the facility would cost me £15 per month, I will not be on here as a trader. I only started trading this year, and too keep
paying out on advertising is getting a joke.
Hopefully the few of you that have now got my details will consider making purchases with my company.
All the best
Steve

Do the MK diffusers come ready to fit form or need modifying to fit like their other products (wishbones, engine cradle, panels, scuttle...)?

Let's not turn this into another get on to MK Sportscars thread
I think I owe someone an apology, (but please be aware I did not delete your posts), although I still think it's bad form to cross post someone
elses thread I wrongly assumed MK were registered traders on here and as MK Sportscars are "any person making a regular profit from
exposure gained from posts on LocostBuilders" I think they should be, but thats something for the MK and the forum administrators to sort out,
if they feel I or MK Sportscars have broke or bent any forum rules. I think Danny's and MK Sportcars' presence on this forum is invaluable
as a direct port of call for members requiring information, advice or problems on the MK Indy range, I know he does a lot via U2U's to members,
we don't want to loose another manufacturer contact point on this forum, as in their defence they did not start this thread, I did, and I did so
because I was genuinely pleased that I had found a diffuser that not only fitted MK's but also would fit my Aries and other locosts, and thought
it would be of interest to everyone, I have no financial connection with MK Sportscars, or the manufacturer of these diffusers, just one still very
happy customer, even though I don't own an MK any longer.
In my own defence I have posted many times in the past, like most other members do, if I have found a good deal, or received good service from a wide
range of manufactures and suppliers not just MK, and will continue to do so

Well put Paul,
I have done the same posted about good products or service, ie the exhausts etc, but I sometimes hold back on here because there seems to be people
who want to jump on the band wagon, or don't like certain cars manufacturers so find any opportunity to put forward there opinion, granted they
are entitled to it but perhaps they should start there own post and not jump or genuine post of a good product or service that may support a fellow
locoster etc,
Hope it sorts itself out,
Happy Easter

Looks more like it fell off a Rover Streetwise or similar to me.

Steve - well done for joining up off the back of my recommendation mate, the somewhat 'friendly' atmosphere I described has clearly been
scuppered.
Seems that unless you are charging extreme amounts of money, or not delivering parts on time, you're not welcome.
Such a shame, sorry I recommended you to this forum.

You obviously missed Pauls apology and thought it best to get this thread back into controversial mode rather than "friendly" ?

Is this what you are looking for?
His stuff seems to be mainly geared towards the VM seventy-seven (Which I think is more or less a DAX Rush?), so might be a bit wider than the average
Vortexerfieldindyseven thingy ;-)

Ive just trail fitted my diffuser, its not fixed in place but it just gives the idea what its going to look like, it fitted quite well, I just had to
cut out two 6cm x 9cm sections out of it for the two bottom chassis rails to stick through on the Aries chassis as you can see in the picture. Lenght
wise it fits perfect, just goes under the floor so I will be able to rivet it straight to the floor, I am then going to fit hidden rivnuts under the
rear lip to the back panel for a clean finish at the rear, there plenty of clearance between the defuser and the suspension so no further cutting of
it required there, so overal very pleased with it, another 2 or 3 hours work and I should have it fitted now, so I would say 5 or 6 hours to fit from
start to finish

Looks good Paul, do you know how much it weighs? or if you get a chance could you pop it on the scales?
Cheers!
