Hi Alistair,

It sticks out about 2 inches (50mm) from the front of the sheetmetal, but the Zeemax front spoiler should cover it just fine and hide all the support bars and fittings.

No one has asked what the wings are on the sides of the FMIC.........????

Spottie mounts?

JC - the FMIC water spray nozzles actually sit in the front spoiler directly in front of the FMIC and spray a fine mist into the incoming air.
I bought a CMGS spray controller from Cooling Mist to control the spray pump for the FMIC water spray. It should work a hoot and it looks the goods too:

Kenno,

Its to hide the actuator can for the KKR280. The can is much larger than the one for the TD04L and it was interfering with the front apron. I just decided to cut a bit out of the front apron and then cover it again with a slight bulge - the red is actually the metal left over from the bonnet when I cut the Starlet scoop in - that's recycling for you!

It will all be hidden by the front spoiler.

Cheers,
Tricky

Dan,
Yes Cam did a real good job on the pipework, he is a good welder.
Come around anytime if you like.
Yes, The Cat is due to go to the spray painters at the end of this month/early next month and I cant wait. It is going to be such a change from 'Ipswich Grey'.

MM,
Yes, the toys will definitely come in handy, I have only a few more things to get and I am done! Billet alloy subframes - hmmm, now there is a thought!
