Replacement hard brake lines

Good morning, I am looking to source the hard brake lines that run through the front bulkhead, from the brake pedal master cylinder to just below the brake fluid reservoir, for a right hand drive car. An earlier post suggests the lines are still available from Porsche but on ordering a pair they are...

WTB Rear Bumper Support Tubes/Bars

Wondered if anyone has a pair of bumper support tubes. I'm not sure if the tubes differ between the early cars and the impact bumper models. To suit my needs, I'm fitting the tubes to an SC shell which I am backdating, bumper is a fibre glass item.

Cheers, Sean

That was a cracking looking car Russ and looks fab in Signal orange, you can see the variation in the orange with the sun on the car.

Re: Can anyone identify this colour

Cheers Andy, think it's an orange related issue as the colour seems to alter in different light and as you mentioned signal orange can look a little pasty depending on the conditions. My car was originally silver and I did fancy the modern gt silver but the painter advised me against, probably requi...

Re: Can anyone identify this colour

Thanks gents the pictures are most welcome, signal orange appears to be one of those colours that varies dramatically in different lights but really does suit the st style cars. Alan, pics of a freshly painted car in signal orange would be great, pretty sure I'm going signal orange. It was a gamble ...

Re: Can anyone identify this colour

Had my shell painted gt3 orange but as the car still needs some major works and will need paint again to a number of areas, I have the opportunity to either stick with gt3 orange or go with a period colour and I'm now thinking a period colour would be more appropriate...wasn't expecting to repaint s...

Re: Can anyone identify this colour

Thanks Nick. Did signal orange evolve over the years or would the paint code have always remained the same? Anyone got a signal orange car, a couple of snaps would be helpful, googling the colour throws up a variety of different shades and I suppose the light has an effect.

Can anyone identify this colour

its paint colour choice time and got my heart set on orange, found the picture below on the internet (see link) and wondered if there were any experts out there who could identify this colour with some certainty? https://picasaweb.google.com/111204634626747158917/6284117521886183905#6284117525726704...

Pair of light weight rear lamp units - EB Motorsport

I have a pair of lightweight lamp units, never fitted and as new. These were supplied by EB Motorsport, see link below.

http://www.eb-motorsport.co.uk/productinfo.asp?id=241

They retail at £280.00 for a pair, I'd be happy with a £100.00 including postage. As stated, never fitted.

Cheers Sean

Re: SVP - Entering Voluntary Liquidation

That's interesting, I do not frequent Impact Bumpers but will check it out. I was fearing being shot down but my experience has been horrendous, he has lied, taken money, not supplied parts. Personally I calculate my losses in excess of £8000.00. and on his creditors list are some very good people, ...
