Product Specs

- Compatibility: Riley 1.5 (All marks)
- Design: Authentic factory-profile replacement
- Finish: Supplied in a durable gel coat, ready for final prep and paint
Why Choose This Bootlid?
- Strategic Weight Saving: Reducing rear-end weight is essential for competition cars to improve acceleration and reduce the "pendulum" effect during cornering.
- Rust-Proof Longevity: High-grade GRP construction ensures this panel will never suffer from the common corrosion issues found in original Riley metalwork.
- Clean Aesthetic: Moulded from original patterns to ensure the distinctive Riley lines and shut-lines are perfectly maintained.
- Direct Hardware Compatibility: Designed with internal reinforcement to allow for the mounting of original hinges and handles if desired.
Installation Tip: For a dedicated race build, consider using lightweight rubber "pull" fasteners to save further weight. We recommend a trial fit to your specific shell to ensure perfect alignment with the rear wings and valance before final painting.
Key Point: The ideal companion to our Riley 1.5 fibreglass bonnet for a total body weight reduction.
SHIPPING NOTICE: Due to the large dimensions and risk of damage, this item is COLLECTION ONLY from our warehouse.
