carbon fibre plate

Postby slparry » Sun Sep 29, 2013 6:33 pm

I've seen some 1100's with stick on carbon plates over the front cover but have been unable to find them. Anyone know where they can be bought?

Steve, there used to be a guy on ebay who sold them, he seems to have disappeared now. You're not thinking of sullying your BCR with such tat are you? it deserves better!

It's to protect from stone chips the fronts already got a few that are starting to show bubbling Figured its better to put on and remove at point of sale :)

Steve,
Are you taking about the front engine casing behind the front wheel,
If so I got one but never fitted it and not having 1100s any more its not needed.
Will dig it out if its what your after.

Is this the type that just replaces the plastic front cover, or is it one that covers the silver painted metal front cover?
I didn't think you could get those but wouldn't mind something like that to protect the paint work on my BCR.

Maybe not carbon, but this has much more comic appeal ;)

and if you're hooked on carbon, perhaps madam could find space for this in the home ;)
