Default Saturn - New Front Wings

We've made a new mold for the front cycle wings which are the larger radius and deeper wings which are now on sale on the website. I know some builders prefer these to the smaller wings so they are now available as an option:

Nice, any chance you could post a pic of how one looks on a wheel to get an idea how much extra it covers it by compared to a small one? Ideally a photo with 2 wheels, one with a small arch and one with a the new large arch for comparison?

Spud,

There is a new scuttle and aeroscreen design being done to go with the Mx5 build - mainly so that the mx5 dash can be used as it is above the steering column. Can also be used with sierra roadster, it will be similar to the westfield one but is a month or so away yet.

Cheers....AndyH

No you wont need the plastic shroud Chris, it will just have a profile over the scuttle to match the dash and the same on the passenger side so that the dash.

Cant find anywhere on your site spud that will tell me if your cycle wings will cover a 225 section tyre, so I will ask the question here.
