i like the idea of a smooth frontbar, hopefully be ready for paint, including side skirts by the end of the weekend! and the lights are better than my standard lights just sayin

found this on the newgel websit tonight
http://www.newgel.com.au/ford.html

full typhoon kits,


to me it seems the lowest point of the kit is the sideskrits with the front and rear sitting to high for it to flow smoothly

Whoo, that's where my kit is from... I believe that they changed the front and rear bar a bit cause mine hangs lower...

so after remaking my fireplate and fitting it again yesterday the same problem occured so pulled the plat off again today and took some measurements of the pipe, turns out it's only 25mm long on the top and about 5 on the bottom, compared to the 30 and 10 i've been making it

Dude, I am sure that you were told to look there rather than trying to make your own. Much easier :P

It actually flows quite well... As long as the right side skirts are modded to fit (hint - not foon skirts)
