Tamora front carbon bib/spoiler and BBS wheels
Discussion
As it was explained to me the 'wings' increase air flow to the front brakes and the repositioned numberplate helps to increase airflow to the engine. I wasn't too impressed when I first saw the pictures but after seeing it in person it does look good, particularly the placement of the numberplate.

I think an upgrade the Tamora really needs is a set of T350 headlights fitted and faired in, instead of a pair of Mk. 1 Mini headlamps! Now that would sell if priced right!
I don't know,, I had thought about 'how cool' the Tam would look with the T350 headlights, but then it wouln't be a Tam, the same way the Griffs and Chims with Tuscan headlight conversions don't look right.
The stainless steel heatshield for the exhaust however, sounds like a good idea! replacing like with (better looking) like is fine, when you start changing the way the whole car looks, well, that's not for me.

I'm told something similar is being worked on along with stainless steel exhaust heat sheild
So, the long talked about T350 convertible is on the drawing board?
If so, that plus 3 year warranty would mean a trip to my dealer for me!! 
I like the idea of changing the heat shield, but to be honest, it needs a change of silencer to under the car, and a flat panel matching the bodywork curves, plus a redesign of the rear undertray. I was going down this route with my previous car, but crashed it before work was completed.
I agree Chris. We were across at the factory last week and asked if the black painted area within the lamp pod could be left body coloured (Red) to try to do something a little different with the lights.
Because of the sealing of the pods it not considerd practical (excess sealant would show on the body colour, but is hidden on the black).

Was talking to the guys from Silverstone TVR at the recent TVR Ride and Drive Day. They said they're planning headlight conversion which doesn't need any body alterations. It will just replace the single headlight with two light units in the existing housing.
Be interesting to see what it looks like especially as the costs will be kept down as there's no bodywork to be done.

I was speaking to Silverstone TVR last week reg the heat shield. I was told that it will now be made from Titanium not Stainless steel, still in development.
I am thinking of getting my local fabricator to make me one out of Stainless and get i polished, should look great against the black and those luverly supersport silencers.
Hilti.

This is what I eluded to previously. I hope they get it to work as it sounds like a brilliant mod.
The wheels are flow formed heat treated lightweight wheels, very strong and are an evolution of the wheels fitted to the Ferrari 360 Stradale also made by BBS. Whatever wheels you try, they'll always look similar to something else (MG, Ferrari...), the key is to find something that looks good with the right quality and dynamic performance. Good looks are of course a matter of personal taste.
