<DIV>It’s become clear that the nose of my BN1 was damaged far worse than I
suspected. (Now I know why the car had no front splash pan—no way would
the right side of the nose have lined up with it!) If Moss offered an
aluminum repair panel I wouldn’t hesitate to spend the money, but it’s always
listed as N/A.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The man now working on the car is an old-time race mechanic with contacts
to a shop that makes custom carbon-fiber body panels. If we could obtain a
good shroud to use to make a mold, the cost of a carbon-fiber nose panel
(attached to the main shroud with epoxy, as modern-car repair panels are) would
not be unreasonable. Carbon fiber panels are much thinner than fiberglass, and
would be indistinguishable—under paint—from aluminum.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>What does the list think? Would there be enough demand for such
carbon-fiber nose panels to justify making a mold? Or—in addition or in
the alternative—making a buck on which a damaged nose could be worked back into
shape?</DIV>
