C/F Rear Wings - Wonky Weave?

[Mike C.]

I've got painted c/f wings on my Superlight. The rears have a few chips and, rather than re-paint them, I decided to fit new, unpainted c/f wings.

 

However, on the ones I've looked at (non-Caterham) the c/f weave pattern is a bit wonky and squished looking in places, particularly around the wheel arch.

 

It's not terrible, but is this normal?

 

If not, who does good quality c/f rear wings at sensible prices?

 

Thanks

Who have you looked at? I've got K9 Composites on mine and they look great. Drop me a blatmail and I'll send you a high res picture of the car. You can see the car here and here but they aren't very good pictures. BTW the front wings are Caterham ones and I will eventually replace them with K9 ones.

Hello Mike, how are you, I have some of DITP, on my car, they are superb, I have also a set of K9 wings and they are well made, not as glossy as the LMT246 carbon that Arnie had at DITP, but are very good quality, I have just fitted K9 front,rear wings,nose and light blocks to Mathew Biggarts caterham and it looks superb! speak soon.

Thanks Shaun/Paul

 

I'll make enquiries about the K9 ones.

Spoke to Peter at K9.

 

You'll see his announcement on Chit Chat ☹️.

 

Hope everything works out.

Looking around, the MOG Racing ones look very good, although with a slightly different finish, so I've ordered a set of four.
