Rear wing protectors
I am looking for some carbon rear wheel arch protectors to stop the rear arches chipping at the front. Any ideas ?

Re: Rear wing protectors
I made my first set out of Ali and covered them with some of the carbon fibre wrap.

Re: Rear wing protectors
Ok thanks guy's a few ideas there, I have already on the car is a carbon wrap but that is getting chipped and well used look. What I was looking for really is almost half a wing to cover 3/4 away up the wing, but hard carbon that you can bond on, I've seem a couple of places who will make to a pattern so may give them a call and see what they can offer and say.

Re: Rear wing protectors
Have you looked at the Mk ones? They do wrap around or just flat ones it just down to whether the curve is similar on a mk to your tiger. When i fitted mine they do flex a bit so might work

Millwood Caterham do a pair which I have fitted to mine. They wrap around the wing and are much higher too. I fitted the because after the Europe trip we did last year I got fed up with the gravel rash

Matt did you just stick yours on or did you use rivets.
I will have a measure up but I quite like those, thanks for the link
