Re: Phils Famo build
Yes that's true Phil, but at the corners it will not be enough to get the rounding suitable. Made of sheet metal fenders can be provided with smashes to create a used look...

Hi Pfil,
that looks good on this side. How is the other side? - The inner side is verry round.

Re: Phils Famo build
I have done both sides of this side, that's as much as I want to remove, it should look better when it's all the same colour!

Re: Phils Famo build
Great looking on rounded fenders Phil.
Ever thinking of adding two short ribs and deepen the footstep on this area? Cheers,

Re: Phils Famo build
Hi Chang,
that part you mean, is verry massiv, so I'm going to mill off all the stuff inside this part. The stepp is than a hole. Later I mill the smal stripes...
Much work to do..

Re: Phils Famo build
Hi Chang, that step hole will need milling, I may deepen it and and paint the hole very dark inside, are you going to round off your fenders? There are lots of rivet details on the fender which also need adding, I will add the two ribs.

Re: Phils Famo build
Hi Florian, there's enough metal in the m3 clearance hole to tap an m4, so I will drill an m4 clearance from below in the fender and fit an m4 button head that way.
