Thanks all you people who phoned/turned up to tell me not to sulk, but it's hard not to be upset, when someone seemingly has a dig at your business.

Perhaps it should be explained that purchasing panels(or parts) from a UK based supplies has a few advantages, over OZ or wherever.

Firstly, you can phone or visit if there's any problems, you know the final price in advance, no getting stung for importduty etc.
Panels are bulky and fragile, so when they come from afar, not only does it cost lots, but ponentially could arrive as a jugsaw puzzle!.

At Classic panels (Brancato Eng's composite co), you can also have a sort of 'aftercare service'.
That is; that in the event of a crash, not only can you buy just one side, or the centre bit, but even willing to place damaged panel back into the mould and repair it at a very small cost, this is, obviously provided that you're not asking for a carrier bag of grp bits to made into a new panel.

For those on a budget why not just purchase the centre bit (no headlamp hole) and use the existing fairing sides? it's £65, you can have red or yellow at no extra cost, plus you can even specify a white race number backgroung at no extra cost too.

I hope all this is of use, if not sorry!
