SiCaln Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 incredible stuff man, surprised it isnt an frp lid tho Quote
NightSpirit Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 It is huge...around 6'Bourkey, you're right, it is Gaz's old car..I've known Gaz for many years now he's a sound bloke. I was with him when he bought the EP aswell all those moons ago Quote
NightSpirit Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 Yeah Si,the lid is metal, sprayed black on the inside...the poly carb has made a massive difference to the weight though. When I've finished hacking it up it will be lighter still. Quote

Si@Fiske Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 are you keeping the wing on or taking it off and keeping just the the lid with the polycarb? Quote
NightSpirit Posted April 24, 2008 Author Posted April 24, 2008 Morning,I'm keeping the wing Si (fishy) it's just too cool for school Last night I FRP resined (that's not even a real word but I like it...resined©) the wing, closing the cracks on the front and back side. Tonight I'm going to sand it all down and run some FRP paper over the ends to seal them up...hopefully that'll fix it.Interestingly the rear wing was used when it was fitted to the car I expect, there's other holes where mounting plates have been.

Si@Fiske Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 indeed it does look incredible!! id say keep it aswell was just thinking weight... drag.... etc etc . want a peek at the weekend pls lol. Quote
