i have one

it weighs fook all being a skin. 3.5kgs. its well made, and looks good. pretty light and flexible, but kinda as ud expect.

i was unimpressed with the delivery tho, bashed edges ment i had to get the fibreglass out for a repair job. no biggie as i debadged it anyway.

price is steep, but no-where else does them cheaper.

Midge had one...it fitted poorly..he had to do lots of fettling.

Ive got fibre-glass ones @ £150

as above, didnt fit good at all, theve put a lip at the top where it meets the windscreen which makes it fit shit and it needs trimming, the quality is ok but not perfect, the weave is distorted in place's, though not many notice it, it takes ages to get it to sit right, if i could go back i probably would have got a fibreglass one, but then theres the cost of painting it which brings it to the cost off the carbon one..
