    Need OEM V10 non-carbon side blades for development of more aggressive carbon blades!

    I have been looking to find a company to manufacture a R8 sideblade that is a little more aggressive than the V10 side blades to fit both V8 and V10 cars. I had a meeting last week with a company that fabricates very high quality carbon fiber parts. I am also trying achieve a less cost prohibitive option out there for those who want to upgrade OEM blades. In the interest of keeping development costs down, I am looking for anyone that has used non-carbon blades that they are willing to donate to a good cause. I was assured that the donated blades would be returned undamaged and could be reused. Of course, the person who donates their blades will get the new blades at cost Please reply to this post and pm me if interested.

    Cheers,

    Reza

    Reza, don't forget that the blade itself is not the only part that requires changing to add V10 blades to a V8 car.

    Alex's price is right on. Same from us, but they are on backorder (7-10 days) from order.

    Thanks guys. I think you have told me before that there is some hardware involved. I am assuming that the honeycolmb vent is larger and there is an internal airguide?

    For producing your replica pieces you wouldn't need the other pieces right away, but when you want to fit the carbon replicas they would require additional pieces for fitment that fit the flared out shape of the V10 sideblade. The big piece is you need the internal trim for the B pillar.
