Just after some advice on what the neatest shock protectors are, where to get them, and whether there are any common diy options??

Search front shock tower protector on Ebay, should bring up a robust lexan one, been using them for a bit now and they are solid, very good indeed!

I bought an A4 piece of 2mm thick lexan of ebay. I bent it over a piece of 1" wood using a hot air gun and a piece of metal. They look great and cost me £3.50 and so far I have made 3 and still got 3/4 sheet left.

Shock tower protectors
Hi, I am selling these both here and eBay (cheaper via oople)
They are made oversized so allow for many different fixings and then trim down to as small as you need it. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3317694664...430%26_rdc%3D1 Lots of people ran them at the BWOC at Silverstone over the weekend and nobody reported a damaged or broken one. Regards Sam

I make my own from old associated shock oil bottles.

Very easy to cut out, and get the right shape, if you have a spare lexan wing...!
Lots of people use this method..

Yes unfortunately they have to be sent as a small parcel due to the size, they're 3mm to big to fit through the slot for large letter at the post office. Postage cost is actually £3.90 but Im still only charging £3.30 .
