Yes or no?

Front lower SE lip,

Works or not?





Im also trying to build a new under tray (using carbon fiber) which will cover the belly of the car from the lip to the front cross member then from the cross member to the chassis rails to the middle of the Gearbox.

Thanks

Andrew

[cliffybabe]

Works, Looks really good

[Chris-W]

Looks good - be nice to see a full profile for a bit of perspective, though.

Is that the stuff that lies about how much it weighs?

[Demlotcrew]

Cheers mate, its just a trial fit.

Need to shave a bit off the sides to make it fit proper

lol Chris.

i once made some under body covers.Not Carbon fibre ,just poxy corrigated plastic.One was cut to the same profile as the tech2 front lower spoiler and fastened to the under body panel.Then i had one covering the gearbox area from the back of the transmision cover.I fitted them basically to stop crud from cumming up,especially at the front.I reomoved them when i did the engine conversion and then had them nocking about for ages and ended up resting parts on them etc.Ended up binning them as they were messed up.
Good idea though,will it be expensive in carbon fibre ?

The lip on yours,im not to sure.Maybe a photo further back to show rest of car.

Andrew, that looks really good mate. That thing needs a carbon airbox to make it sing!

BTW - do you still have that scorpian s14 backbox?

[d1mmy]

think its looks good

[Demlotcrew]

Buster, i have a mate who is looking into getting sheets of CF (1m by 1.5m square) this will then be cut to size.

I have no idea as to the costs of the materials but i cant see it being more than a SE undertray.

Andrew, that looks really good mate. That thing needs a carbonn airbox to make it sing!

BTW - do you still have that scorpian s14 backbox?

Yup mate i still do

[ShineOn]

Hmmm, gonna have to go against the tide here. I don't like it. Makes it look like that Jimmy Hill bloke.

[Royalratch]

For trackday ground effect stylee - Yes.

Otherwise - No.

[Rosc0PColtrane]

What kit is your lower valence?

[goosiegander]

Looks sweet!

[miniblob]

Yes!!!!!!

That looks sweet!!!!!!!

[e30matt]

I'd say yes but thats probably cause i've had a carbon one on the front of my 320is for the last three months, wonder where you got the idea from???

[oakey]

i like that!!

PBMW mag's old 320is has one of those fitted also.Same car here ??

[jpboost]

I think it looks good.

Is it set as far out as the one on matt's ?

I can't remember exactly as I last his back at brands last year, but I think his poked slightly further out.

do you think there is going to be a real (noticeable) effect on downforce? (genuine question)

[Demlotcrew]

Mate get over yourself, this has been on the cards for some time now.

After seeing your car at brands it just further reinforced my decision of getting a SE lip.

Andrew

[Dan318-is]

Looks pukkah anddy, just avoid those speed bumps

Im not sure if its out as much as Matts, but im limited to the shape of the hartge lower valance, but its very close to the SE lip step. The only problem is that the SE lip is wider than than the Hartge valance, which means it needs to be cut down. But thats not a problem ive found a way to strengthen the lot right onto the metal valance under the hartge/mtech II spoilers.

Just been to the shops got some high strength nylon bolts and nuts and some silicon

Cheers Dan

Andrew

[DanThe]

Ive used silicon for fitting skirting boards before, its great stuff

If your car was any other colour I dont think it would look as good

[Pal318is]

The Lip looks sweet fella as said tho' be wary of those fekkin speed humps.

Pal

[pacerpete]

F4ck me demlot ,you don't waste any time ,doesn't Alice need some muck chucked up her ?
That's ginger Stueys front lip , it was buried up my back passage for years, i have another one if any deviants are likewise inclined !

P.S remember to pull the auction for YOUR MG MIDGET !

[maxfield]

Nice!

[ed325i]

I like it

[Demlotcrew]

Some more pics







Thanks for all the positive replies.

Andrew

[charlE30]

It looks very I did laugh about the under tray idea, as in stopping crap getting up into the engine bay. On mine the undertray stops crap (oil) getting onto the drive

Got to take my hat off to you though mate excellent work and in one of the nices materials... I have a slight fetish for carbon fibre all be it in road/mountain bikes

[Splondike]

I like it Andrew, when are you replicating it on the Chavalier

[dazleeds]

hmmmm
this could look pukka on a certain black tech 1

[Pal318is]

Much better pic's...Definate YES

Is it possible for the lip to be attached to a iS lip spoiler?

Pal

[Demlotcrew]

In the states there is a guy who does the same kind of lip for the 'is' lower spoiler which fits the contours exactly.

So its best that you go for one of those.

Andrew

[miniblob]

Top man - that looks wicked!!!!!
