Gave up trying to get champagne for lemonade prices using moulded resin.

Also, wasted too many hours playing on a mates lathe with ally tubing!

HOWEVER, job now done properly... I'll post pics of the final version of these rings (in CNC engineered aluminium) over the weekend.

Several sets will be available should anyone be interested smile

Pictures as promised...

click to enlarge click to enlarge click to enlarge click to enlarge

I used autosol on the one in the first pic (took about 5 mins of easy rubbing), the rest are as made.

As quite a few have expressed an interest I'm going to get some sets made up over the next week. I'll start a new thread in the parts for sale section once I've got a stock of them.


Meanwhile, be handy to have a list of everyone who definitely wants a set. PM me for more info...

Thanks,
Sie.

Yep, put me down for a set! Are you going to Brooklands in a couple of weeks? If so, I'll pay for them then. Saves postage smile

No Dave, I have a mix of 2 thin rings and 2 fatter rings, as one dropped off on the move and had to replace with a pair that was different from the original GB.

Thanks!

Well steel grey is probably the worst for showing them off in my opinion, black would be great.

But I do like how their more subtle on my coup, and I'm liking the le colour light cups that are a little darker.

Finally got around to fitting mine today, imo they really suit the Plus with all the other standard polished bits thumb
