AMV8 NEW parts and modifications
 
Hi, I am designing several parts for my AMV8. I am a professional car designer and have worked in the automotive industry for nine years, and have worked on several sports cars. Thus, I have access to various machines, materials, 3D scanners etc…
Since there is a lack of accessories and parts available apart from the ProDrive parts (but they are extremely over priced), I thought I would make my own, using the best technology and parts available, and if anyone is interested they will be available for a fraction of the parts currently available.
I am initially going to make a carbon fibre front splitter, and a carbon fibre rear diffuser. I will engineer the parts such that they will fix to the car using existing brackets. I am then going to design a rear spoiler that actually looks good and is functional (I will be doing aerodynamic tests on it). I also plan to design a replacement side(wing) mirror holder, one which is chrome that matches the trim around the window, so it all looks one part.
If anyone is interested please let me know, since I am going to make parts for my car anyway.
Regards

Good luck will definatley be checking this thread back because a friend of mine has a V8 vantage and wants some CF goodies such as rear wing and front lip spoiler, a rear diffussor will def make it look very sporty.

Sounds interesting, if you ever need CF manufacture to produce the parts. Let me know, I may able to help.

I am always interested in seeing what you might have to offer

Hi Vantage Design,

I would be interested in carbon fiber mirror covers. Thanks.

Hi, that sounds like a good idea, that is definitly a part i would consider. I have started to make a far more comprehensive list of all the parts I am going to progress with, i will post it soon.

You had better change your user name and dont even think of posting phone numbers or conducting business here untill you get permission from a forum owner/administrator. Its grounds for a permanant ban.
Nothing personal, just need you to follow the rules to keep it fair to our sponsors
