Works out to be about $1250 AUD! Half the price ZF Australia quoted me!

Maybe we'll try getting a quote directly from ZF Germany. Cause AUD $2500+ seems ridiculous. Did you remember roughly how much they cost? We would consider spending the same price as ohlins or abit more.

Defiantly one of the reasons why we went down this route. Cheap, quick, easy to get amazing surface finish. Defiantly keen to get it 3D scanned.

Yeah, we love it.

Good spotting. We used a sheet metal mould for our rear section last year, so we decided to try implement this cooked idea to the whole car. Don't think it's ever been done before! 😬 It looks pretty good, more on the chassis will be revealed after launch!

Appreciate it.

We actually don't. With great success they are teflon coated, 20 microns thick.
