Best place for V6 panels for a PH2

[JON FOZ]

I'm looking for some good fitting panels for a 255 shape V6 Clio.

I've been told originals are thin on the ground and mighty expensive so what are people using ?

Cheers

Surely you've been on here long enough to know that no one is going to admit to building a v6 rep, even if they were mental enough to do so.

Why do you want the panels Jon?

 

[JON FOZ]

The car is being converted into a V6,not a Renault engine though and is going to be AWD.
The car is a competition car so the panels are required to host the drivetrain comfortably.

I knew a guy that fibreglassed his own pannels. Built up moulds from a roughly shaped metal shell and filled with layered wax and then hardened sand. Not everyone likes putting that much effort in but the entire mould build will cost less than the panels sold by dodgey internet sellers. And a hell of a lot cheaper than dealer prices. Plus you can reuse the mould a few times for spares.

Good luck. Just make sure you sort out the track widening. Don't need anymore of these

 

[JON FOZ]

Thanks,the track won't require any widening.
I wouldn't have thought any Renault parts will be used besides the shell.

Nothing a spacer can't fix!

 

[JON FOZ]

Definitely no spacers,they wouldn't last 2 minutes with the power.

I've been speaking to a guy today who can supply all the parts for the V6 look, he came recommended by a V6 owner who said they are the best available.
All down to the customer to see if it's what he wants now.

Thanks for all the info.

This is the one I used, they did a light lay up for me for racing.
