Radius of Carrera 3.2’s trailing edge of lid/center reflector?
Anyone know this dimension?
Bought one of Al’s center reflector delete grills and realized my car doesn’t have the panel back there due to the turbo. Thinking of fabbing one so I can mount the grill. |
I don't think it is a constant radius/circle. When I fabbed mine I just mimicked the line of the lid or the existing reflector.
Here's a mock up that shows pretty clear what I did for a frame using approx 8mm aluminum U-channel and some L-channel to hold the top and bottom together, leaving enough gap for the grill, then riveted them together. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1703132267.jpg And the final product. The lower part of the frame doesn't line up with the taillights because I have 964 lights. I plan to go to a more upright taillight eventually, so I wasn't worried about that. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1703132267.jpg |
That is beautiful and inspiring! I’m going to shamelessly plagiarize use your idea.
