Looks good Q....what was it, 20mm wider?

 

[Guest]

Yea 20mm wider,the only part I don't like is that I made away with the flat sides..

Interesting point that one, I have always thought I don't like the flat sides on guards, but seeing them without it makes me think the opposite.

I'm fairly certain when it's in a finished look it will be better without the flats. Nice work btw.

 

[Guest]

Updating pictures of the items

 

[Macca]

Nice, looks good Q.

 

[TME_Steve]

I don't think I can get flares on that

 

[Guest]

I don't think I can get flares on that

what you talking bout bud? Sorry

 

[hozza]

flares around the gauges? like a bezel.
or he is talking about the guards?

 

[Macca]

So are you going to make up some engine covers? I really like the ones they had available on CVR4 but I don't think they are being made any more.

 

[Guest]

If I get enough interest ill make them.. I have all the gear to do vac infusion, and have blue black or red black cf cloth aas well .
So if you may help me generate interest ill make the covers as requested, even modify them if need be...
the second thing is what's the thoughts on eyelids? Legal in au or not?

 

[R Kilburn]

What about EC5A door pillars could you make some? Id be interested in an engine cover but different from the original look

 

[R Kilburn]

Oh yeah would anyone know if Id get away with a fiber glass bonnet (like the one on E bay) in QLD I keep getting different answers, And do they fit out of the shop or do they need drilling/modding etc
