front upgrade mk1

[rens914]

fixed my winglets today
bought tham at fibreon and had them reprayed in the cars colour
always had the feeling the car was to round on the front side
the front splitter didn't do the yob for me
the winglets give the car something wild.
i really like the look with the original peppergril.

Pity we can't see them to give our valuable opinion

Any improvement with regards to high speed stability / downforce, or just for the look ? Pics please.

[rens914]

first for all for the looks and perhaps also a teenyweeny for the front downforce.
i like the winglets in combination with the peppergril

You have any full pictures of the front of the car? Any side too? I quite like them? Did you try them with the normal front tuscan S splitter?

Nice work

[rens914]

hey BDM
it's raining over here
not going to take the car out
but i have another picture from the side
the winglets do give the front of the car more body (more agressive profile)

Ahh rain?!? You would have hated Thunder In The Tunnels this morning then... Pissing down with rain. DId get some sun at one point. Totally know what you mean about the front looking alittle round. I was thinking of getting the Tuscan S front splitter and thos winglet do look quite nice...

[rens914]

in my opinion the splitter doesn't do anything with the appearence of the frontside. it just makes it longer
the winglets make it more square and more agressive

Looks quite nice. How are they fixed - any adhesives or silicones needed to avoid rattling, or is it just 2 bolds each that go through the Peppergrill bottom?
I wonder if they might fit in addition under the S Splitter as well ?

BTW: here is a working link: http://www.damagedtvrs.co.uk/stock_pages/tuscan.ht...

Defo get some full piccys up for all to see... How much are the winglets out of interest?

[rens914]

the inside (the numberplate side) of the winglets have a curve. normally this is for the tuscan 2 replacement grill. With a little mod the splitter will fit (you'll have to respray the winglets anyway).
will post some better newer pics tomorrow.
the winglets are fixed with 3 bolts per side.
1 in the peppergrill and 2 in the sides (light pods).
i didn't use any kit or lubricant.
i'm not sure of the price anymore (i believe it was something like 200 gpb but was that incl shipping ?????). phone fibreon

Your front is the one!!! I have a picture saved down as i love what you have done. Is that some sort of vent in the service bonnet?

Also what is round your real lights? Some sort of silver ring?

Looks fantastic, where did you get the rear diffuser from?

Asking what that 'hole' is in the bonnet is like asking Dr Who what his name is!

Your car looks great as it is, I've yet to see a tuscan that has been improved with the fitting of a rear spoiler I have seen a few monstrosities!!.
