Can't see any issues to be honest.

I know what you mean with them fitting flush around the spats etc. I'm going to blend them in with fibre glass to create a good fitting with no gaps. It just means that if I need to repair them later or something along the lines then I'll need to take the full thing off which means they will probably break

Ok after my trip to Bobs (great weekend and even better host) It was back to the day job.......and some more modding.











So I got a new rad, fitted that and was told to bleed the air out (which I knew nothing about, cheers Bob) There is this little valve on the top of the engine thats says "do not open when hot" This all includes in the the process when re filling the coolant.

Pic to follow

And after all the request for carbon side skirts the first batch is almost ready

But that not the end there is more carbon trim



Whats this he is making

Oh no you didint...........



Oh yes I did, one step ahead to all the people who said do something like this. As you can see there not quite finished, needs the be mounted as ive only tacked up for the photos and of course it needs the trim. Just alittle more shaping to do and were done





What do you think?





Anyway well happy, now off for scran im Hank.

Dont go getting Zealou5 now
Mikey

Haha they will be in production once these are perfected Need other cars like 32 and 34 to make some for that, think they would look awesome on the nismo spats on a 34 and well there is plenty of 32 at Bob's.

Clarkey, had alook at the splitter at Bob, i can see why it breaks, that is one flimsy bit of carbon. If someone was to buy one from Knight racer new there worth about £250 tops let alone the £550 there asking for

I bought a set of those over fenders from there as well. Im not going to use them. It's a terrible fit and the body work shop I was going to use said they would need constant sorting which would be costly

where did you get your spats from Mikey?

Hey mikey
The 34 nismo spats are just straight so two bits of carbon like what you're doing for the skirts would be all that's needed, if you have a spare meter or so kicking about gimme a shout

its so farked mate, i actually started getting fed up of repairing and started just laying carbon over the splits rather than cut out and match the weave.

i fancy another carbon splitter, but something alittle more shallow...but love the 400r style

hit me up with something

The 400r is nice, but the build is rubbish, they needed to have more layers of carbon rather than FRP and a skin of carbon, which is what they done. How they can charge that much I dont know.

Now if it was 4 layers of carbon then it would be strong

Well my trust splitter is very stong, thinging of covering it in carbon which would look nice. Maybe if we find a FRP splitter you like, we could skin it in carbon to get that look your after.
