I'm not sure if they are connected to any tubing - but I've always thought they looked good love

I had planned to do something similar (and use the nacelles for DRL's) but I chickened out cutting the holes.... scared

Hi James,

I do recall seeing them on Vipers old car, I to have always been fond of them however I would want them cutting very accurately and don't think I could bring myself to do it!

I also want to take a look at how they are on the GTN, incase the metal is furled back rather than straight cut - to make sure its done properly!

I can imagine us both sat there with the grinder.. you first, no you first.. and so on laugh2

Nick


LOL laugh2

I actually went so far as to source one of those hydraulic hole punch sets to cut the holes - still couldn't do it doh

The GTN style holes are swaged so that the edges have a nice, rounded profile - again ,difficult to achieve on a curved panel ,whilst still on the car.... ooo

So, "after you Cecil;no, after you Claude......"
