Barge Boards

[P4N Lotus 6]

Anyone got barge boards on their cars, how much of a pain are they when cleaning the body work sides? They look kinda kool.

I looked at one with gloss black barge boards, it looked ace. i don't think it would have been any more difficult to clean.

My evora is having them fitted before I pick it up.

They do look pretty cool, i'd be worried about passengers (and probably me) stepping on them getting out though

[chris_h 16]

Yeah I might just say no passengers!

Yeh I did wonder if passengers end up ripping them off and regarding the cleaning I was curious as it obviously sticks out and you have maybe a 70degree angle wher it joins the body, just thought it may be awkward to clean that area as the sides always get really dirty , even more so on the evora because of the design.

 

I'm considering it, I'll have to have a nosey at yours Chris, are you going to chatsworth ?

[chris_h 16]

Yes, will be at Chatsworth.

 

At the lotus factory next week, hopefully the car will be on the production line somewhere!
