I have been wondering about how to make the cycle wing stays to fit the mx5 uprights for some time. I had a look at GBS, MNR and westfield's solution. From the pictures I could find the westfield ones seemed to be exactly what I was looking for. Before I attempted to copy their design I dropped a quick email to them on Wednesday night. I got a phone call back on Thursday at about 9.30am to say that he would do a pair for me. £36 each powder coated and could have them at donnington to collect on Sat or Sun.

I decided instead of trying to source materials, get my mate around with his welder and then send them to be powder coated I would buy them.

I collected them at the show. Russell the guy I was talking to showed me around the Honda version and pointed out what they had done with their MX5 cars.


Here is the end result. The only parts I have ever purchased for my build that didn't need any fettling or adjustment. they went straight on (5mins/side)!!

After fitting...



I also managed to get hold of a few odds and ends like black rivets along with a big roll of carpet (most awkward to carry lol).

There seemed to be a lot of seven type cars and i'm sure one of them was a Haynes roadster but I didn't recognise it from here.
