I think one should know that these are not the original Ariel wings and they are obviously made of GF.

Really? They look identical to my factory wings and supports - just with red vinyl on them? What makes you so sure that they are not?
The pictures aren't great and the details somewhat lacking, so I would be suspicious without some very clear close up photos of them off the car.

Re: For Sale - Atom 2 front and rear Wing
I need wings for the atom 2 so just browsing the market. Any pointing in the right direction would be appreciated.
Re: For Sale - Atom 2 front and rear Wing
There are only really a few options in the UK, the Ariel factory, Skunkworx, or Reverie.Encromoney wrote:I need wings for the atom 2 so just browsing the market. Any pointing in the right direction would be appreciated.
Personally, I'd stick to the factory wings which do occasionally come up for sale second hand on here and on Ebay. You could put up a wanted ad.
The ones in this thread look factory to me.

Re: For Sale - Atom 2 front and rear Wing
This is an Atom from the German distributor. He had both the sidepods and the wings made by himself. BTW the front wing is significantly shorter than the original from the factory.Fastlane wrote: ↑Mon Jul 19, 2021 1:36 pmdreamscape wrote: ↑Mon Jul 19, 2021 9:35 am I think one should know that these are not the original Ariel wings and they are obviously made of GF.

However, I am not claiming that it is of poorer quality!
Re: For Sale - Atom 2 front and rear Wing
Fair enough and my apologies for suggesting otherwise. I can see now that the front wing is much shorter as you say. Strange that as the importer he didn't buy from the factory.dreamscape wrote:This is an Atom from the German distributor. He had both the sidepods and the wings made by himself.

No apology needed mate ...
Well, I think he did, but then decided to have this made himself. Just like with the sidepods, which he had created based on the first drawings of the V8. He had to change them later, by order of the factory though...

Very interesting. Is he still their importer?

I will dismount the parts tomorrow, I would sell the side pods as well.
What about 1.500€ for the whole package, wings, mounting parts and side pods?

Actually, it isn't shorter than the "original from the factory", as it looks about the same length, although it is shorter than the later, current one sold by the factory.dreamscape wrote: ↑Tue Jul 20, 2021 8:59 am

I had the very first set of CF wings fitted to my Atom 2, which came over America in November 2007, and they were short.
They replaced the Aluminium set of wings, which I'd had fitted when I bought my Atom in August 2006.
The short CF Wings, were then replaced with the longer CF wings at the end of 2009, after they were damaged.

Re: For Sale - Atom 2 front and rear Wing
Alec, you're right, of course, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong. The fact is that this wing is approx. 20cm shorter than the current one ...
Now we can discuss whether 20cm is already long or rather short
