i see that bob from cgb is selling grp front bumpers, im guessing he 's got a mould made, the item description says there are no more front bumpers available from renault, does that mean that the stock pile in france has ran dry??? if so is now the time to start getting moulds made of all the body parts, before things get stupidly expensive to buy !! its starting to get beyond a joke already, the amount of times this topic has been brought up , and dropped because the o.e brigade complaining of originality of the cars, there is not many o.e parts left second hand in the country now, as most of it getting shipped back to europe
and before anyone mentions importing moulded items from a certain member abroard, the costs are not viable to do so, ive been thinking about making my own for a while now, and of next year will be, but i do feel that maybe as a club we should be doing something about this, rather than taking the "every owner for himself approach" which it is at the moment, the end results for this club will not be good, its obvious that we have not enough interest from the newer models meganes etc to keep the club going long term, and still rely heavily on the club numbers of the 5 gt turbo with a sprinkle of various clios and 9's ,11's 21's etc,
all i can see happening within the next 5 years is a few getting rich while the car numbers dwindle and get broken for bits, while getting more expensive and good bye club
rant over , my thoughts on the subject again as ever
