And when I spoke to them, they suggested it offered very negligible difference in strength. 'What benefits does the carbon have over the fibreglass? Why would I buy the carbon, over the fibreglass job?''Um... It looks good?''Haha, fair enough.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark & Adam have bent over backwards to help me at no gain for themselves, so a big thumbs up to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
