I somewhat liked the large single tip as it just screamed "this ***** isn't standard!"
True. But a round peg in a square hole never looks at home.
 
Looks much better with a twin tip!

Waitey the noise this thing will make when it's finish ( or this stage of modding ;) ) will scream "this ***** ain't standard" :p

From when I've seen Neil drive, he doesn't drive fast a lot of the time because he knows he doesn't have to prove anything, so you'll barely hear the sound when it's done anyway :p
 
Neil I think we need a thread dedicated to your mud flaps as it has been asked so many times in this project thread (I'm guilty of asking myself) :lol:

James I only used two brackets to support the inner edge of the rear flaps
 
Neil you know you love me right? Fancy getting one of those tips made for me?

Could do.

With a short length to play with, it was made to fit and welded straight onto the back plate of the rear box with a new hanger. With the measuring, trialling and re-measuring to get in the tight space, it was nearly the same price as a smaller replacement rear box and tails :? Its only two bent tubes cut and welded together, then two polished sections with a slight slash, slipped over the ends.

The difficult part was getting it lined up square against the cut-out and existing pipe so the finished result will only be as good as your fitter ;) It would also depend on where your backbox pipe sits in relation to the cut-out ( the KTR one was nice and central)
 
Drysump and super charger :shock:

Only joking. Three weeks for CanBus sniffing and fitting one of their Tornado ECUs, then getting shipped to leeds for about another week so Paul can fit the boddies and map it. Not a problem, as im away to work on friday for three weeks.
 
After a few trials, this is the first real play with Sketchup, which will hopefully turn into 3d printed hubcaps for the Speedlines

Now to find out how to get them printed
 
https://www.3d-alchemy.co.uk/ these guys do a really good job and are fairly cheap, my mate kieron had had a fair few things made by them and he didn't run into any problems, sent the cad file off or equivelant sort of file and had it back with him within 7 days. hubcaps look tasty :D
