step 1:
make a base using hardboard step 2: measure and cut some MDF fins set em at an angle of 7 degrees Step 4: add a bit of extension to ensure diffuser doesn't become an air brake step 5: take off and fastern all screws Step 6: Fiberglass the bastward with 2 layers now i'll let it dry for 24 hours before applying and body filler right, did some more fiberglassin....... but whats this ????? 2 diffusers ????? here's what really happened, used the wooden diffuser as a cast and made a full FG one, cause a wooden diffuser is to "BARRY", the FG diffuser is light as a feather, strong as steel......now gonna use some FG filler to smooth it out.......fits like a glove the amount of sanding to do was astranomical.......anywayz, enough wingin all sanded and smoothened and all painted, cleared three coats but no pic of that, looks the same looks sooooooo beautiful :wub: looking at it, i feel as if i have made a baby :sofa: i want it in my living room, damn proud of it :wub: cant look at it eoungh..... fitted pics enjoy...i love it -------------------- |

7 degrees was the magic numer as per my mate who knows CFD
as for making some for sale, i already tried it, if i was to make and sell 10 diffusers at very very min profit, it would cost £250 including postage, thats just UK postage, because of the high price, i didnt make any or sell any, price was so high cause according to a fiberglass expert the mould would cost to much to be made and bla bla, so i just droped the idea, but if anyone's lookingt o make their own, i can help, its simple enough -------------------- |
