      I was wondering about brake ducts. Do you have any back up plan for cooling? or are you just hoping the E46 brakes wont even notice the heat on track after a few laps.

          The short stints on road tyres when we're mucking around at the track shouldn't really bother the brakes that much. They're a reasonably large size. I guess it's a wait and see thing.

          If it comes to it, the idea is to slot some long rectangle ducts behind the mesh in the gap between the lower rad support bar and the bottom of the opening. Figuring (guessing) we might get a bit of air pressure in the area.

                    Wasn't the split bumper always part of the master plan?

                      dude freaking yes. This is so inspiring. keep up the good work and fabrication


                      please don't use chicken scratch for the mesh at the bottom, so many styles of mesh that would ruin this. has to be the perfect one

                                But you said you decided it looked like shit. Did you mean without the split bumpers?
