During our third race this weekend at COTA I had the misfortune of someone spinning right in front of me. The result - significant damage to the nose of my Zeitler! Does anyone have Zeitler body parts or even an entire car?

No parts, but I would request a full picture of your car, pre-damage
Looks like a nice one.

I have damaged the nose of my Zeitler several times. I make a mold out of the foam blocks from a florist. This foam is soft and easy to shape. Then cover it carefully with packing tape. Coat the tape with mold release and then build the nose around the mold with fiberglass. Once cured carve out the foam. Apply a thin layer of body filler and wet sand. My last one came out real nice.

Thomas,
Can you provide a photo of your car?

Dave sent the pic to me via email. I presume that means he couldn't get it up loaded to the site for some reason... so here it is..
