[QUOTE=austen_wrx]Jesus!! 2 hrs!! I'm an engineer, but you must have boss eyes .

Haha you said it The Boss's eye's ! As you will know Square lines mean everything ! I don't work to a thou, i work dead on ! Wish sometimes i was normal though, You know Bodge it and Scarper !

 

eyes!!

 

A tip for you boy's that hav'nt started the manufacture of the flaps, Use a pritt stick to glue the template onto the Ali, when you have cut them out just soak in some warm water and the template comes straight off, Also Don't drill the holes in the Mudflap material seperately i'ts easier to drill through the Ali and the flap that way you know the holes are going to line up ! Unlike mine which are just slightly out.

Ok now just need to fit them !

 

I fitted the rears today!!





I made a 3rd bracket from bits of ali i had in the garage, but if you extend the rear bracket on your template and bend it, it will do exactly the same thing. Or there is enough material from the off cuts of the ali i sent to make the 3rd bracket, as long as it only goes through the one bolt.

 

Does anybody want some of these 50mm x 130mm which i think it just about perfect:-



Was going to order a batch in white.

 

After printing them out full size, i think 75mm x 195mm suits it better:-



I'm thinking that light grey would look nice.

 

Excellent pics mate, appreciated Will come in very handy when I get around to fitting mine.

Fitting pics of the fronts would be great too when you do those I hate going into these jobs blind, like to gather as much info as poss first

 

Austen, looks good so far...I haven't even got around to unrolling the kaylan yet!

Noddy question re stickers....does anyone know a particularly good place to get some STi ones?....Scoobyparts do some, but only up to 100mm wide (they may do wider than whats in catalogue, just havent got around to calling them)...Any ideas?

Looking for boggo-standard white to go on black flaps (oo-er)

 

I'll be getting my graphics from my usual chap, Mook @ www.skewer.co.uk

Did a superb job on my DC Sports banner on my old CTR Just send let him know what you want and he'll make it up.

 

Finished!!!! Did the fronts tonight!!





You have to remove the 2 fixings that you use for the bolts in the wing, and the 3 fixings on the inner wing plastic liner, you can then squeeze your hand in to hold the nuts and washes in place. It a bit tricky but not too bad.

 

Just knocked this up for anyone who has not started yet:-

 

Austen you've spent alot of time making those pics as informative as you can for us and I for one appreciate it....Thanks Mate!

 

its better than doing proper work while at work

 

anyone knows where i can just get the bracket kit

 

Good work again Austen, those pics are superb, very useful

 

The brackets didn't come as a kit we had paper templates and cut them out of 2mm ally...

 

Great pics Austen, cheers for those...hopefully they're pretty similar to the classics, except the shape of the brackets/flaps.

Found a good guy on eBay that did the STi stickers for me...bargain price, 99p for a pair!!!

Got 4 pairs made up in 2 sizes, 120mm and 140mm, just in case...you can find him here...very responsive, had mine the next day, in a stiff-backed envelope to stop them creasing.

Did someone say my name? Hello, glad to help with any stickers you need.
Cheers, Lawrence

 

Just a pic of my flaps... "Oh! Matron"



Thanks again Austen...

 

Finally got mine fitted at the weekend, what a nightmare of a job ! My hands are killng me Scratched to pieces

My front flaps scrape when I go around corners too Think its because I have the Prodrive springs and its a little lower. What sort of ground clearance does everyone else have on the fronts ?

 

Looking good Lee!!

Yeah mine scrap aswell, and i still have the standard springs. I am putting off cutting them down until i have my eibachs fitted, plus i'm not looking forward to squeezing my hand back in there again!!

 

As you know the WR1 has Prodrive springs and I find that the only time I've really noticed them scrape is under compression after going over a dip in the road not really around bends?

 

Not looking forward to shredding my hands again either !

I think I'm going to have to remove at least an inch from the bottom of the front flaps to get them to clear when cornering. Getting some funny looks at the moment

I only have about 15mm clearance on level ground, so with a little body roll it scrapes.

 

Has anyone got any pics of the mudflaps on a Classic please?....mine are all cut and ready to go, but looking at the rears, the holes are nowhere near (like 25mm out) lining up with the predrilled one on the bodywork and the one attaching bumper trim to bumper.

Am I being stupid here?

Edited to say....almost done the rear mudflaps...remembered the RavenBlade site...

Any pics like what Austen did for the New Age would be, er, fantastic!

...still got to do the fronts, but fingers crossed and a bit of lateral thinking!

Cheers in advance
