If you contact the companies you 'want' to do the aftermarket parts Then they'll pay attention and know there's a growing market for them to make the parts for the platform The more you,or others ask, the more they'll listen It isn't always driven by us getting thing's made up for various platforms (although we do do that a LOT ) It's also driven by consumer demands on various companies to produce certain item's for them Obviously there'll be upgrades coming from 30° North, But folk also like Brand Name 'Bling' 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QRC Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 To be honest these isn’t much I would start altering out of the box. As long as some of the plastic parts are strong and can flex, what’s the point in changing to alloy, unless you want bling. Should be able to start break in the engine this week, Tuesday, then start put it through its paces . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I've said, the more people ask companies to build stuff, the more they're likely to listen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
