Stone film

24 Apr 2012, 3:44pm
Hello from sunny Reading! :)

I'll be collecting the rest of vikkis bodywork on the way back from my course. Having rung Normandale, they seem to have some problems getting the stone film on the rear wings done - something about the chaps from venture shield not being around...

Anyway - can some one do me a favour? Can you measure the width of the flat portion of the wing for me that faces the front of the car? If some one can get me that, I can go online here and order some film myself, and have it waiting at home for me when I get back, and I can apply it myself over the weekend.

Cheers,

Jason

Just measured mine and its 6" or 150mm whichever you fancy. That is from the edge of the piping ( where the two panels are fixed together ) to the point where it starts to curve. I have some carbon fibre look alike skin stuck to my wings for stone protection and that stuff is 150mm wide.

Thanks Dennis - off to eBay to purchase now. I will owe you either a pint, coffee or Ice cream depending on how you get to stonliegh, and what the weather is like. :biggrin:
