That'll be Argon Creative stuff you have Mike which is skinned i.e. not proper Carbon Fibre. Most of their stuff falls apart given time.
Don't even get me started on argon...

Yes Argon. No, the 2 bits I am talking about are all carbon not skinned (air intake and right hand engine cover). Noyjatat will also tell you about his love if their carbon bits.

That's a whole lot of good looking carbon bay, any change in intake temperatures either bad or good?
