wats these wing fillers like? There's 18's goin on aswell so splashguards are gonna rub like fook anyway.With lots of fettling and fookin about I think they could be changed and moved up into wing a few inches but would be a while mission.

i just removed my liners.
but i think carbon arch fillers are way OTT
i'm going to make some myself.
i think my home made ones are going to be cheaper than £70 pmsl

i taped it up with masking tape, where the wheel chucks crap into the engine bay, then covered that in wax, to stop the 'glass sticking to it, then cut the 'glass mat and soaked it with resin. After it'd dried, trimmed it to shape, and finished it off. Was fairly easy, hey, I managed it.
