I have a stainless version fitted and it definitely makes a difference at speed certainly stable at 145 mph on an airfield (of course).

Very good Anthony, we can always rely on you and your unique sense of humour ! Plus the fact that it helps to maximise the amount of shiny things under my bonnet thumbup

This is the right way round, I'm shocked that owners don't know this

Mine has never had one in my owner ship nor have I seen one in the flesh
So onwards and downward this week and I will have a bash at the 1/3 gutter variant

You could be a tad more pro, Alun, and get one made out of stainless. 900 mm long and 75mm wide, with a 45 degree angle on the midline. It does actually help the handling and reduce bonnet flap.

Stainless,,, it's pointless as its a matter of time before I rip it off again on some speed hump or other. That pic above is what you want and it'll do the job just as good. I've been running without mine for ages and it's not really an issue unless your above 100 mph. I'm more inclined to think it helps get air into the engine bay than any great downforce effect.
I just like the ingenuity of Peters very cost effective solution. wink

Is that a dig! Not very funny if it is.
I was washing my wishbones down yesterday,,, so I could inspect them for cracks,,, is that funny too.
There's a lot of very good reasons to clean and polish things Anthony and mostly about safety and as that's a thing close to my heart I'd rather you think ahead mate!

I bet you hate shoddy looking accounts,,, get my drift smile
Peace brother, live and let live wink
