Rubix 434 Report post Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) "technically" there shouldn't be any reason for it to not be certifiable.it's narrower than the mirror and as such poses no danger to pedestrians, it's bolted to the chassis so won't come off..Shouldn't be a problem.EDIT: It's not like front mounted Canards which can shear a pedestrian in half should you hit them with speed, unless they go over the hood and the spoiler then cuts them in half?

Olaf 3309 Report post Posted April 29, 2016 You can expect plenty of roadside conversations with the constabulary about this wing. I think there's a difference between a bike rack - fastened to the bottled with clips - and extrusions bolted to the chassis. When a ped collides with the bike rack, it will cause bruising and contusions, but will ultimately disconnect from the car. Worst case scenario - a broken bone. Your wing will slice the same ped up. It's not for the road. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wrs 119 Report post Posted April 29, 2016 I love it .. looks seriously agressive and you have already done the lowering etc to support the look. I actually think you have a go at making your own bumper setup with rear diffuser. Leave the rear bumper stock and get some glass one made up (Dutchy can do this if you have a the part to copy (which you do) ) That way you can do a diffuser into the back. EG this direction Yeah, great looking wing - loved watching this guys races too (Georg Plasa???). Amazing looking car - if you can get a similar look it would be awesome.

Pidge 12 Report post Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) Personally I'm pretty undecided I like it because it continues the theme of the car perfectly but just feel it looks 'unfinished' without a bumper. Custom rear air dams like that 1 series would be unreal! Looking forward to seeing further progress Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited May 7, 2016 by Pidge Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cab 148 Report post Posted May 8, 2016 You can't even open the boot for the groceries anyway because brackets are drilled into it to keep it from flexing haha. I'll be making a diffuser soon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michael. 2313 Report post Posted May 9, 2016 In my years of tinkering with cars, one thing I've learned is you should never make a road car too track like Have a road car and Have a track car Or else you're just compromising, and end up with an awkward, impractical and annoying car to use thats too harsh for our crappy public roads.

Cab 148 Report post Posted May 16, 2016 Finally found the diffuser setup I'm after. Will get this custom made soon. Also another wheel update: Swapping my RC303's (wheels only) for Daniel's RG-R's as they have the offset I'm wanting (mine are 18x8.5 +38 with 20mm spacers, RG-R is 18x8.5 +13) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
