It's Not The Car It Used To Be.....

[danwebster]

I like it, especially the gold....I have a feeling the back of mine might look similar soon....

[jonnyfox]

This bit is going to be hard work and expensive but hopefully rewarding!

Are you building a boot back in? How much weight does the rear cf clam save?

[jonnyfox]

No it'll have no boot. The saving stands at 17kg without reinforcements for mounts, areo catches and stuff so maybe 12-13kg when finished.

[DeanB]

A good saving that. And at the right end of the car.

[Dr H]

That is a very good saving. I have a lightweight fibreglass Exige front clam on mine which saved about 6kg over an original Exige one. So to save double that on what is a larger piece is great.

Looks like a lot of work Jonny loving the Carbon are you going to paint it?

[jonnyfox]

Yep all painted except the doors.

[MrSimba]

Wondering how they shim the clam to fit when it does not appear to touch the rear sub frame? sure its escaping me but when I refitted my rear clam that was where most of the adjustment was!

[jonnyfox]

No boot no shims Si, the wing pylons will take the weight. Taking Q's of Gav's car....

Nice. I have never understood why they are all not made in this configuration. EBD and Eliseparts ones are like that. Why some manufacturers cross the primaries i dont know?

[jonnyfox]

So far so good on the run in.... Mapping next week.
