Family Wagon 23 Report post Posted January 6, 2016 Hi Hans, I'm looking for E36 LTW too, though its not urgent. Where were you planning to bring one in from and what approx cost have you found? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HaNs 226 Report post Posted January 6, 2016 (edited) Around $719 usd delivered http://www.abrahamsmotorsport.com/e36.html Edited January 6, 2016 by HaNs 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Family Wagon 23 Report post Posted January 6, 2016 Mmm some nice stuff there and those LTWs look nice. I have some other items to fund currently (including roll cage) so my LTW will have to wait. Good luck sourcing yours. I'd love to see some pics when on! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HaNs 226 Report post Posted January 7, 2016 Caging mine next month! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Family Wagon 23 Report post Posted January 7, 2016 Ahh nice. Who's doing your cage? I've found it to be less straight forward than I expected due to needing to go 8-point for regs and having to move and/or delete some stuff I was hoping to keep standard. Can't wait to get it done though! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel0663 30 Report post Posted January 7, 2016 (edited) Wouldn't bother with Abraham/Marshaw, unless you specifically want the abraham/marshaw. There are a lot of versions of the wing out there now. I got mine off ebay through a Polish seller. There is a couple sellers out there now from Poland/Bulgaria, seems to be from the same manufacture. Complete 4pcs fiberglass version (really light, solid construction) shipped to my door for $340 a couple months back. No sag, and the base tapers down like the original LTW/GT wings. Build quality/fitment was better than expected considering the price, but like all fiberglass parts the surface needs to be flat sanded and re-primed.

HaNs 226 Report post Posted January 7, 2016 Link Daniel? Family wagon, what regs need 8 point? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Family Wagon 23 Report post Posted January 7, 2016 That wing looks pretty good Daniel, thanks for the info. The Abrahams is Polyurethane I think, so do you know if there's any weight difference? Hans, I've been told it's the MSNZ regs now and I believe it may mainly relate to airbag delete cars. I've taken out the airbag of course for race wheel etc. An 8 point is good practise in any case, but attaching to the front strut does make things more fiddly around fuse box, brake booster and also heater box for the cross bar under dash. No problem if you are doing a bare bones race car but not so great if you want to retain some street car comforts and do things cheap. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M3AN 4016 Report post Posted January 7, 2016 Oh I hate the risers on these things so much. But I love the low version. You can get fibreglass ones from Hamilton although I'm not sure it would be less than $340 shipped??? That seems a crazy low price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel0663 30 Report post Posted January 7, 2016 (edited) Seller was "azo3104" on ebay. http://www.ebay.com/sch/azo3104/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from= He also sells the reiger adjustable splitter complete with hardware etc at the fraction of the cost compared to other US based sellers. I haven't bough it myself as i've made my own front splitter but the from the listing looks pretty decent? You can get fibreglass ones from Hamilton although I'm not sure it would be less than $340 shipped??? That seems a crazy low price. Yeah, i've thought about buying that version but i couldn't justify purchasing a low-rise ltw replica for $500+ $340 NZD, shipped to my door is a crazy good deal considering just a year ago the only replicas around were the ebay "extremedimension" crap and Abrahams/Marshaw selling for $600+ USD while genuine hanmann/gt2 were fetching 1.2K +. There was a full carbon version on ebay from taiwan, but it seems they don't make them anymore. Edited January 7, 2016 by Daniel0663 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marquis 18 Report post Posted January 7, 2016 I actually sold my LTW wing not long ago for $250 which was cheap as chips. But not risers. Gotta love the Reiger Lip. How much did it set you back Hans? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HaNs 226 Report post Posted January 7, 2016 $180 ish. Going to try and take a mould here locally and produce them in plastic Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Family Wagon 23 Report post Posted January 7, 2016 Wow, that's cheap Hans. Does that include the steel mount brackets or does it bolt into the standard lip? Also does it arrive unpainted so you'll just need to throw some paint on it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daniel0663 30 Report post Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) I made it myself. There are DTM/Varis/Mateomotorsport etc versions i was really interested in but shipping from the states was a huge deal breaker .....

Also does it arrive unpainted so you'll just need to throw some paint on it? Bolts onto OEM lip. I need to buy a rivnut setup. Goal is to replicate in plastic so they can take a beating.Edit: comes in white gel coat so will sand and rattle can satan black. Cheap LTW wings will be back on eBay soon. Will update you all.
