recognition to john aka "jvrenaudom"
hi
undertray repro from john arrived
i would like to post the feedback of this purchase here to somehow close the circle
nice, fantastic, superb, amazing,...undsoweiter
john was great to deal with, i talked to him in the phone while i was in london in october, just after he emailed me saying that one part was available, really he made my day, i was on a toast, butter and marmelade breakfast near the british museum and we talked about the part, quality, how to install,... nice tips and explanations from a "connoiseur"
he was very kind to accept an odd way of payment that was good for me, being in the city and with some pound notes in my pocket
i was delighted with the experience, but that was only the beginning, a hand full of days later the box arrived, excellent preparation and strong parcel reinforced for a safe delivery
the part looks gorgeous, i have seen the original part in pictures, and this one is a full detailed copy with a huge improvement as to the quality and performance of the material, strong, light and virtually watertight forever
he made it in black, what is the right thing for this application, and a plus when you work with GRP that is usually white, good SS brackets and rivets and screws complete the kit.
i have been witness of a reproduction also made in GRP of this part in my last trip to germany, and no way, cheap, miserable copy when compared to this marvel that john offers
moreover, i will tell you that i got a quotation from a friend expert in GRP process of how much will cost to reproduce this, considering that you have to create a mold and then produce the parts, so i can tell you that the price of this reproduction part is absolutely fair
it will be a while until i will be ready for the assembly, but i will post a little write up, for sure
thanks john, see you soon in london
