Title: Coupe and Roadster Batwing Sizes
Post by: No Bull on March 06, 2013, 05:12:35 PM
All,

Just wanted to post this and let anyone who is considering using a OEM splashed bat wing on a roadster, they are different sizes.  I looked up the part numbers for a coupe and a roadster and sure enough these are two different part numbers and they are about $1,000 different in price. 

I know a fellow with a real LP640 roadster who has offered to trace the tops of a batwing in posterboard and send it to me so I can lay in on top of my OEM splashed bat wings and compare the two.  I plan on cutting and sectioning mine to fit the template then modify the G28 quarters to give the car a better and more original look.  Someone could save me a lot of time if they happen to have a set of splashed OEM roadster batwings for sale.   ::tongue

More to come on this and I'll post some pictures of the template on the coupe batwings once I receive it in the mail.

Thanks,

Chris

Does anyone know what bolts to this area?

Nice batwings! Does this mean you're going to paint the car black to match the exposed carbon fiber wings? I have a weak spot for black cars with exposed carbon fiber panels like the hood, spoiler, & trunk.

A black Murci with exposed carbon fiber panels gets no hotter in my opinion. John has an exposed carbon fiber hood he's not using but don't tell him I told you that.

Just saw that pic, that color is nice too. I'd do the LP-650 orange accents if you're painting your car sedate grey like in the pic below.
