Calling V8VS / V12V Owners - Favour needed

[AdamV8V]

Hello, I have a slightly random request for anybody with a V8VS, V12V or indeed late model V8V.

The next time you're in your garage stroking / polishing your P&J, would you mind grabbing a tape measure and noting the dimensions of your front splitter and rear diffuser?

The dimensions I'm particularly interested in are the red lines in the following pics:





Many thanks in advance!

Something you want to share with the forum Adam? I'm guessing we would have heard if you had bought that roadster from Nick Mee the others were telling you to look at recently and your garage contents on your profile still says Golf GTi

Yeah, I'm looking to turn the Golf into a V12V, body part by body part, starting with the bumpers. I figured if AM could squeeze the 6.0 lump into the engine bay of a V8 Vantage, I could get it into the space currently occupied by a 1.8T...

Doing some exploratory investigations at the moment. All will be revealed.

For now, MrsGT, less speculating and more measuring please

Sounds intriguing Adam, I will have a measure up in the morning if nobody has come to the rescue by then.

Dare to divulge a teaser as to what is going on..?

The following is as accurate as one person with a metal tape measure can manage..

Front - D 105mm H 130mm W 1730mm
Rear - H 400mm W 1440mm

Hope that is of some use

Interesting Adam

I'm guessing a re-build of an MX-5 to look like a V12?

That is definitely of use, thanks Jeff.
