Driver's suit zipper replacement

Anyone had this done? Mine broke (which btw could've easily caused me to miss my race).

I assume the zipper on my (OMP) suit is made of nomex or some other fire proof material, and in that case, where do I get a replacement? Also, is the replacement job pretty simple for people who do this stuff, or does in require a specialist?

Sent my Sparco to OG Racing, where I bought it, and had it back in 10 days, very reasonable.

OMP zipper repair/replacement

You can also go back to the vendor where you purchased the suit. I will PM a contact name at OMP for you to contact direct.

If we can help, let us know.
