He's not been on for 3 weeks (7/10/2008)
Maybe real life has got in the way.

Hi, work has been in the way, way too many 7am to 8pm days. I have been doing some work on the front still . I had been trying to see if it was possible to fully round the front of the fenders as in the 38-40 alfas but the inside of my fenders are too low and it looks shite if bring it around to the bottom of the nose.
I am away from home for work but looks like I get to go home tommorow so if I get the chance to login I will post a pic or two.
Thanks for the intrest.

I finally had a few minutes to look at the car and try a couple of things between trips out of the country.
I made a mistake when putting a curve in the right side fender and the piece had to be cut out anyway so I made a mock up of an idea I had been playing with to try and block some of the air being trapped under the fender. It would emphesize the nose a bit as well. Either way I have to cut the wheel cuttout a bit more on the original side to allow full turn in and bump.

It still allows full turn in and movement of the suspension and the edge nearest the wheel can be brought in a bit more an cruved back at the edge to smooth it out.
