Cheese graters? Front vents/louvers? Cut out at the back?

How do front louvres stop you seeing traffic lights? :/

Funnily enough my plan involves a coupe back and tubby spoiler. I'm guessing your coupe panel isn't hinged Allparks, just aerocatched in place? Any chance of some close up pics of its arse? ;)   G

Yeah just catches. I attempted a couple of different hinge ideas which I spent ages on but they never worked as well as I hoped! Am still planning some hinges but I had to get the car ready for paint shop so had to settle for pins at the moment. But that will change. Will put up some closer pictures of the back up this week. Will take some when I get home from work and there is still day light :/ Cheers for all your comments I'm glad that people prefer the new look. Was getting worried you all may want me to go back to stage 1! 😳

Looks fantastic! But where is the roof scoop air going? Is there not a risk of it ripping off the inner skin if its not going through to anywhere?

I worried about that so the scoop has been sealed about 1-2" back with fibreglass. so no air actually flows right in.

stunning car. Instead of this roof scoop (its kind of huge) i would use the exige one. Doesnt drag that much too. Or without it.

 

But each to their own. Like it still.
