Looking for any info. on inner wings.. what are you guys doing? Is it invent your own or drive only in the dry??

Gary does some fibreglass rear inner wings.

I think I might get some and make similar for the front.

I made rear ones using 6mm marine ply, I don't have front ones yet but i will be fitting some at some time in order to help stifen up the front.

On the g46 I have an idea to cut away the arches from the scimitar floor/bulkhead moulding and attach them to the flip up bonnet, very like the inner front wings on a herald/vitesse bonnet. Just an idea at the moment, not tested yet.

I have saved the metal inner arches from my Herald with the plan to see if I can make them useful under the bonnet. Otherwise, I shall just look for inspiration from other builders on the forum.
Makes sense to use them as an integral bonnet stiffener. And we all need those.
