Benton Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Bit of a long shot but has anybody got a spare Caterham one in a sound condition they want to part with?I've looked at SVC parts but the headlamp bowl/bezel do not appear to be the same fitting as the Caterham one on the car currently. My one is losing pieces of powder coat/ bubbling up and is less than 2 years old! Unfortunately it's not covered by warranty because I've dared to exceed 12,000 miles (ffs)Otherwise it'll be a Hammerite jobUPDATE:- Originals re-powder coated :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K7 VCT Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Why not get them re-powder coated ? Did mine after 3 years as flaky, better than ever now 3 years later Cheap enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SM25T Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Smoothrite satin black is a pretty good match for powder coat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerSuperSix Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Are you looking for the bit that sits on the front and holds the lamp it? If so, I have one, but it has a small dent in it.Alternatively, you can buy just that part from Caterham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benton Posted February 13, 2020 Author Share Posted February 13, 2020 Thanks for the offer TigerSuperSix. I thought I'd better take off and have a closer look at the second bezel and it too has started to bubble. I phoned Caterham but they don't sell the bezels separately, at least in black.So I've decided to have the two re-powder coated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerSuperSix Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 That's strange, I bought one from them last year. Must have stopped doing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
