Sweeping Wings

[A17YOB]

I want to change over to cycle wings on my S7

 

i know its going to be left with marks all up the sides aferwards will an ally polisher bloke be able to polish out 10 years worth of grime and fill the holes where the sweepers were?

 

thanks in advance

don't think your be able to hide the hole's mate but the grime thats collected there will eventually polish out, i'd condider some carefully placed graphics to add a different touch..

Just a thought (imo)

Someone (Darren F possibly) converted over & put small dome headed stainless bolts through each hole, looks ok...

Graphics work wonders - I had the same problem

Why the change ?????????? I think the S7 looks better with the sweeping wings they were standed with the kit at the time & the 2B only looks good with the cycle wings

Hi,

 

I have a length of the 'multi bend' tube from RH lying around in my garage. The brackets for my SSpec were cut from an identical length of tubing. You are welcome to this piece if it will fit.

 

The brackets sit over two bars that are located above the upper ball joint on the Spec, diameter about 3/4".

 

Let me know if you are interested.

Brackets and cycle wings came from MK, about £100 all in.

i must disagree, they look old fashion, with the wings

[Guest salty_monk]

Actually if you look back in history the original Lotus seven came with cycle wings... The swept wings were developed for the export market, principally America to start with....

 

I guess that actually makes the cycle wings the most "old fashioned"
