A part like that would be quite a challenge for someone who does that kind of thing for a living - It's got hollow fins and ends - it'd have to be made from 8 separate moulds because it's such a complex shape. Even if you had one to copy, it would be a huge undertaking. Starting from scratch would be months of work. That's what I'm worrying about. I've spoken to fibre sports, they stopped making them as it's a hassle and time consuming, same with the capri club I believe.

Quick question. I have a Capri and want a turbo tail rear spoiler, I can't find one so thought does anyone have any ideas on who I can get to re make one or how I can make my own? Never used fibreglass before so have no experience with it. Thanks.

I would say alternator as the lights shouldn't be dim if it's working correctly even if the battery is going.
I thought the battery is mainly to start the car, the running of the car is the alternator.

Capris are such good retro daily drivers.
Can't wait to get mine in the road again next year hopefully.
Shame about the damage.

Saw a guy at a car show with one attached to a blue Sierra. I saw that one a couple of weeks ago at the NO Name Car Club show near Stourbridge. No pic but it was just like the red one above. Found a pic on Instagram. I saw it at wythall carnival.

A lot has changed in 12 years. Mainly the price of most things with a ford badge.
Some cracking Anglias though.

I've just inherited my dads z4, it was his pride and joy and I don't want to sell it.
There nice cars, just get one with a straight six engine, the 4 cylinder one doesn't have the noise.
There nice cars, maybe not retro yet but getting there, I think they will be a classic one day though.

Just looking at car ramps or lifts to do work under the car and found these www.ebay.co.uk/itm/291819895848 Has anyone got these? Or similar? They should safe enough to work on the car while under it, as long there in flat stable ground. Cheers. It's a shame you haven't got an outbuilding big enough to take this; 3 tonne car lift£800.00 One day, that's most people dream on here. How easy to do work on a car.

What car is it?
I bolted a cheap roof rack to my Capri and then bolted a massive pieces of plywood onto that that I made bigger then the car. Covered it with a tarp, the tarp wasn't touching the car so has a bit of a roof over the car. Seemed to work well

I'm trying to see about capri turbo tail spoilers
I don't know how big you can make things with these printers or anything. Just watching that show seems can pretty much print anything.

Don't know how many have seen this show, but I watched the Astra GTE one recently.
They needed a new centre cap for a wheels and they had it 3D printed by a place in Aston Birmingham.
They never say the names and things of places that I could see, I wondered if anyone knows that place or a place where I can take something which they can use and make the computer file to build me a new one.
Everyone online all say upload the file which I haven't got.
Thanks. Paul.

Nice. I'm guessing they never did the Diesel engine in the cortina style p100.
