B8 mods - Black B8

Black B8,

Have you visited Wiechers yet for the strut brace? I recall seeing the carbon fibre one a few months back on this site and was wondering if you are going to get one of these.

I would be interested to hear if weichers can still produce these and for how much?

Regards

Paul

Actually I was thinking to go on Thursday if I can manage to keep my calendar clear of any disturbing meetings. Wiechers said they were no longer able to produce the carbon fibre version but they wanted to try to build an aluminum version for the B8.

I'll keep you updated and I will let them know, that there are more B8s around that would possibly like one.

Cheers, Alex

Aluminium strut brace

Hi BB8

When you find out at Weichers - I would also be interested in purchasing one too.

Good luck with the "disturbing meetings", they allways come in the way of more important things...like life.

I actually had to move the visit to the 19th of August. I'll let you know how how it works out.

Cheers, Alex
