Need Advice On These Cannards

[celox performance]

I can't make my mind up whether to get these cannards sprayed CW or keep them carbon :? . The problem is the whole cannard including the back would need to be painted white. Please comment with your thoughts

They look a bit odd being the only CF part showing either get the CF front lip and maybe mirrors or have them spayed white IMO.

Or another alternative would be to spray the brackets white and leave the rest carbon :?

 

[Hoodster]

Yeah they would look better if you couldn't notice the brackets so much

hi mate, i think if you are keeping them then defo spray them white. Iv just about got my breath back after that ride in yours last night. Quick car xthumbup :xvtec:

Glad you enjoyed the ride mate

Are these the canards from Dixcelbrake ?
And is that there natural angle or have you positioned them ?

 

[celox performance]

Yes they're the ones and that's the natural angle. In other words If I try and fit them at any other angle they don't sit flush to the bodywork.

If this is all the carbon that the car is getting, then I should paint it CW.
If you are going to add more carbon to the car then i would keep it carbon.

they look to long, especially where they go over the crease

id go with cw unless your getting other cf bits?

 

[Hoodster]

I prefer the shape on the ones that Chris-DC5 is making there not as long and don't seem to curl upwards like these.

 

[Dixcelbrake]

I think you have put it up abit too high and too much angle.

If anyone don't like the size, we can make it in any size you like.

cheers

Any chance you can post a pic of where it should be fitted? I tried different angles, but when it was angled less I couldn't get it to sit flush with the bumper and there was a gap inbetween the bumper and cannard :? . Ideally it would have looked better just above the splitter, so about 1 inch lower and against the crease instead of towards the top of the bumper.

just a taught but paint the front cw and leave the back cf

 

[Newty]

Hmmm, they look out of place. Not a big fan of these things, unless 'more' has been done.

Will be miles better if you paint them CW.

Ok thanks for the replies. I've made my mind up and i'm either going to either get a different set of cannards from Dixelbrake or paint them white. I'm definately not going to keep them carbon, so thanks for helping me to make my mind up

Any pics yet Dixon?
