Seems you have missed the point: presenting an interesting technical solution for a front with overriders.

A very neat bit of work using the indicators.

I was also particularly impressed by the use of the indicator fixings.

Maybe time to play with some card this has inspired me, I have never really liked the gaping front on my Roadster, maybe the lighter body colour extenuates the effect?

There again like me and my ideas it'll probably sit on the ideas shelf!

I'd possibly toy with going wider?

Hi Mark

Yes they do look better with a valance, but for me the biggest benefit is it makes the car much more stable causing around 70mph or in strong winds. It seems to direct the air flow towards the rear car and stops lift under the bonnet. Well worth doing. Have look at Cain's offerings, he will also make bespoke.

cheers

Not at all, the way it was done is clever, very clever.
I was just adding encoragement to others...
And it isn't easy to fit a valence, ask Cain!
