MoT Usage regs for body kits

[Charlotte001]

This one is for one of the experts such as ED etc. What are the MoT guidlines or usage regulations on body kits? as I've come across a company, who currently builds boats have said they are happy to build me a body kit provided I supply moulds. I can build the moulds out of balsa/pine etc just need to know if there are any specific standards (good old french and EU why did it change from the EEC to the EU?)

i doubt any regs would apply to the k10, maybe newer cars. the body kit would have to be incrediably stupid or unsafe to fail an mot. as long as the bumpers are secure and well fitted there should be no problem

and no sharp edges, and enough ground clearance to allow the vehicle onto a ramp, and to drop down into the Roller Brake Tester.

That's what I was hoping would be said. Ok off to the boat builders tomorrow.

wikid!


and as a bonus....if the design is good you might get some "business" from potential 'custom' body-kit punters in here..
