Looks great! I really dig the curved windshield. Is it safety glass or lexan?

Your lovely new wishbones! ... clearly they look better, they are more aerodynamic, but are they much lighter than the Mazda wishbones?

I like the way you have curved the fly screen to match the roll bar

Scooby, it is a one piece unit. Colin, cut from polycarbonate sheet. Toed64, a little lighter but much neater. Kiwicanfly, don't be greedy, you have one MEV already! Thanks for your comments so far gents.

From the side you can see in the top pic that we have adopted a fish look. Reason: The Exocoetidae are a family of marine fish in the order Beloniformes of class Actinopterygii. Fish of this family are known as flying fish. According to wikiwotsits anyway.

Kiwicanfly, don't be greedy, you have one MEV already! Sorry I was under the impression that you thought that the ideal number of MEV's to own was n+1 where n = the number already owned.

Are they Iva compliant?

I presume the one piece bonnet isn't backward compatible to the standard old style Exocet.

The mirrors are only just big enough for IVA but actually pretty useless when reversing! They come from Bikeit. The new chassis is narrower as the rad is positioned differently to allow for a narrower nose as can be seen in one of the pictures. I am afraid therefore that the new nose will not fit the standard Exocet.

Stuart,
I really like the headlights. What are the specifics on those?
Thanks!
John
