Went about rewiring the wideband today..

Pulled a 2nd wire through so i could ground it at the ecu. Also added an inline fuse.

Been on a bit of a spending spree hey. I bet the OLED will bring another interesting element to trackdays. I am somewhat envious :)

Having read nearly every page of this thread and not finding the answer. I'll do the easy thing and ask

 

What spoiler are you using?

Where did you get it from?

Are they still available?

Time to sort the V.

JB welded a bit of mesh on the inside.

Posted Image

Posted Image

Then fibreglassed the inside to give it lots of strength.

Posted Image

Then i went over it with some p38 which was sanded.

Posted Image

Then a coat of grey

Posted Image

And as it sits now with its first coat of black.
