Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup) Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I will cut the pointy end off both of them but will form a new pointy end a bit further back, if you get what I mean. A bit of filler and paint and Bob's your uncle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup) Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Gary. I am really sorry, but both of the cuts are at different angles. Will it matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup) Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I tried to cut the angle again. I have the angles the same now but one wing is now shorter than the other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Taylor Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 oh no how will i know which side is which now ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Taylor Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 ahhh the short one is to allow for the exhaust , yes ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup) Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 It won't matter as you cannot see both sides of the car at the same time. I measured them earlier and its only 50mm difference now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Taylor Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 and by shortening them I wont get as much front end lift, glad you thought this through for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
