opplock Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 After several years of ownership I've finally had a front wing part company with my 2002 vintage car. The mounting looks completely different to anything I've seen before. Was this ever a standard fitting? The wing was bonded to two of these plates. The weak point proved to be not the bonding but the metal plate. The other half of this one is stuck fast to the otherwise undamaged wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opplock Posted July 12, 2022 Author Share Posted July 12, 2022 Thanks JK. It did look over complicated for a 7. I'm aware of the more conventional methods. Back in my x/f racing days we shed wings so often that tie wraps were the preferred option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
