Just wondered if any VX owners had any experience of this?

I have been told that it should fit the VX in the same way as the Elise, I quite like the idea of it for a bit of extra storage for Le Mans etc.

i'd be concerned about ripping chunks of fibrelass out of the rear clam with that. wouldn't want to put anything weighty in it either, very easy to crack / stress the gelcoat in my experience.

stand to be corrected!

I agree with Smithers (alright mate hows it going?).
I wouldn't like to be attaching anything by hooking it onto the fibreglass, its not very thick and the paint comes off fairly easily. I would have thought the unpadded straps going over the edges of the bodywork would rub on a long journey too and mess the paint up.
