          hi,

          they also make the rear wolf spoiler,
          I bought it from them, from time to time the make also a group buy over here.

          I can picture some detail of that, if the company they are using to produce the front end is the same the quality is nice

            Hi Santu, they sell carbon products from more than one manufacturer, they sell stuff from creative carbon which is made from pre preg and the ones in my link which are made from a wet layup of carbon. Do you know what type your spoiler is?

                    the one i am showing you, the wolf spoiler was purchase from rapidford, but i don't know from where they make them,
                    i saw carbon creative but i don't know that company frankly speaking.

                    the piece and is quality for me is great

                      I waited almost 15 months to get mine from Creative Carbon and when they arrived the quality was utter PISH! Ordered 21st July 15 and received October 2016. They will need to be refinished before I can fit them

                      Frankly i would have been embarrassed to supply anything in the state these arrived. The finish was like sandpaper, so much grit underneath plus finger prints in the lacquer right in the middle.

                      The corners didn't have any carbon in them, just clear resin so you could see right through and my wolf spoiler had the same issues. Rapid Ford did their best to sort it out but Marcus at Creative Carbon makes MK motorsport delays and delivery times look acceptable.

                      Personally i think the guys a prick and would advise you to look elsewhere!

                      I think there is a guy in Greece doing them and the pictures i saw quality looked really good but didn't have them in my hand to say for sure. Will hunt to try and find who it was, have it saved somewhere!

                        This is ridiculous! Same issue as with our wolf spoilers from creative carbon.. just took forever!

                        I'm usually a calm guy but get really pissed off when I read things like devil just posted above.. FFS.

                        The cosworth scene is just full of scumbags and twats doing their con.. thieves!!! I'm part of other owners' clubs too and have to say paying for parts and waiting is far worse with the escos than any other of my cars (lancias, alfa romeos, aston martin v12 vantage, Porsche 911 turbo, classic mini, rally ae86 etc etc) and some of those are rare as fook cars too..

                            Not to protect anybody, but the time when I bought my one with rapid ford, the same people you are talking with now I suppose, was in 2013..

                            probably something change?

                              My first set of splitters had to be returned to creative carbon as the carbon weave was dodgy in places.
                              To be fair Mike sorted it all for me and was spot on, this was many years ago though when time scales were much better.
