Front Splitter

[Flying Scotsman]

Thats a bit big dont you think... and im not sure what the 5 0 will say about such a sharp edge on the front...

 

[aaron86]

its only the template and the car isnt used on the road, the proper one will be twice the thickness,

 

[Flying Scotsman]

ah i see.... have a look at the s1600 splitter, much stronger and larger than the FRP one.

i think you need to revisit the shape, follow the contour curve of the bumper more, big is good though as you need a good portion to continue back under the bumper for airflow, ideally youd have the whole bottom solid with a diffuser at the rear, my mates done that with his nova using alu sheets

 

[aaron86]

yeah i prefer that one, plan with making it myself is its a dam sight cheaper £9 so far and satisfaction that i made it.

I'm sure they made the whole bodykit of wood didn't they?? :lol:

 

[aaron86]

I think it was an aventine with a wooden splitter and they had to get it round the track quicker than an evo

 

[madhillbilly17]

i remember that :lol: i cant remember how it caught fire tho?

 

[LOONEY]

what if you made it out of plastic?

 

[aaron86]

Bit of a delay on this one, after abit if reshaping its still not finished but after spending the day in the garage there's light at the end of the tunnel.

 

[jamesfordpuma]

do you just have your air tube from your bumper going to your airfilter?

 

[aaron86]

Yeah straight into a cone filter, the bezel and the pipe is black now so it doesn't stand out as much

 

[jamesfordpuma]

cool mate, mines black too on a black puma
