Howdy all,
Are the front guards on a Super 3 aluminium - or fibreglass?
Regards,
Rhys

OK (makes sense).
I did a factory tour recently, and they were claimed to be aluminium.
No biggie.

I understand they are changing the front mudguards to aluminum with a smaller design which basically loses the "Guardian" shape at the bottom and adding a light at the top. There's a rendering of one of the recently announced Origins editions which show the new mudguards: https://morgan-motor.com/models/super-3/origins/fast-forward/The current carbon fibre mudguards will probably become an option.

I checked the material of the front mudguards on my MS3.  I tested with a magnet, I confirm that it is not metal, but I do not know what it is

Looks like they are losing the protruding light on top of the headlamp at the same time (ie migrating from headlamp bowl to mudguard...)

On the limited edition model I saw at the revival, they were the same mudguards as on my 'standard' MS3  : ![[Linked Image]](https://zupimages.net/up/24/37/1gq6.jpg)

That is a very striking colour scheme.

sometimes you can have too much of a single colour
