Holes in wheel arch liners

This happened on my S1 and now I have done the same on my S2. I did a training session at the Millbrook proving ground and now I have holes in the front wheel arch liners. Std S2 Exige NA, Touring. The holes look ideal to fill the lights with water.

I assume Nitrons and stiffer springs are the way to avoid this? Does a stiffer roll bar help?

I don’t really want to change much as I (and the instructor) where blown away by the grip and rock solid handling…those guys at Lotus know what they are doing - apart from wheel arch gaps.

Have a look at the thread a bit further back this section about hedlight access panels. It’s a common enough problem. A stiffer ARB will make it go away but undoing the damage may involve eating a tin of Fox’s classic.
