    UPDATE 3rd PAGE! http://www.ephatch.com/forum/showpos...2&postcount=44

    Long story short i bought a Seibon Carbon Fiber Wing.. and i had to constantly wax and wash it daily and i got tired of it so i took it off. I was tired of having a wing everyone else had and the mugen was a bit to idk i like it but dont sometimes.. I love the way the duckbills are on EG's and EK's so i figured why not make one for the EP3... so i came up with the ideas and Leon (HomelessEM2) from ClubRSX did the glassing.

    Goal is to have it look like a duckbill of an EG or EK. and I'm ordering Carbon Kevlar for it soon hopefully this weekend.. Its decently priced. $50 a yard..

    So far with the outcome.. I'm very happy with it and the fitment is execellent.

    Here's the pics so far: no sanding has been done yet and this is first fitment.


    From the Front.



    Top/side - still have to fill in the side to line it up.



    Side Shot



    Back Shot - back not done just added glass to it afterwards.



    This weekend we are going to mock up a radiator duct which will also be Carbon Kevlar and look just like the Mugen Duct and even will have the piece that goes behind it to direct the air.. Maybe work on a rear defuser.. all Carbon Kevlar

    I'm ready for the good and bad comments. Dont be too harsh as this is the first test fit.. should have it done by friday.

    Here's Mr. Pickles this dog eats Condoms and would rather play with street bike tires and rocks than dog toys lol.

    Thanks fellas,

    The mold of my duct fits and sits perfect! i love it. the wing were doing kevlar on top and painting it black on the bottom. were 95% sure it will be done for Sunday.. which is the RSX/EP3 Meet in my area. i may post one more picture tonite of the wing with the sides practically finished.

    the word is one more coat or resin and then the kevlar gets laid.
