I have a pair if Viper Wings that need prep'd and painted but was wondering if any members have put any mesh on the vents on the wings? Just a thought maybee but then again I might just leave as they are. Any pics welcome as well.

 

Cheers John

I put mesh on mine, black mesh, black car.If you don't put mesh on they look unfinished.I will try and take some pics 2 moro.

Did you spray the mesh black or did you buy black mesh?

Got black mesh.

Ive just had mine sprayed to be fitted. ;)

 

Has any1 had any problems fitting these wings as mine dont seem to be a straight fit,

The lip on the top half of the wing that bolts on under the bonnet seems to be at different angle compared to the standard wings.

Making the Viper wings stick out :( :confused:

where did you buy the black mesh from, was it good quality stuff?

As with all fibreglass products they need a bit of grinding and prepping to fit.I had to grind the bit where it bolts just at the bottom of the screen.They were ones from Z center and not too bad.

I got it from my local car spares place, not this place but the same stuff.It's been on the car 6 months now and still like new.

There's loads on fleabay too including plastic mesh that won't corrode.

cheers bud, it's just that the stuff I bought from halfords was crap, as soon as you bend it to shape it, it just snaps :(

Vijay,

 

You can get both Black gloss effect and black matt effect mesh from B&Q (Warehouse stores), they come in various sheet sizes.

Rgm makes plastic black mesh for £20. You can get it from Halfords.

 

Yeap you can get away with a non meshed front bumper i prefer them like that but the wings look unfinished as rubble said.

Looked in B&Q a few months back and didn't notice any black mesh, I'll have another look in there and Halfords :)

Pics would be cool of the finished article if anyone has any.

Give me half an hour it's hail stoneing at the moment. ;)

No rush mate tomorrow would be fine.

Here you go mate.The cars a bit filthy and a wipe with an old rag didn't help but you get the picture ;)

This a picture so you can see them on the car.

Cheers for that, I agree with you that they dont look finished without the mesh. Mine have been fitted to a car that was broken for parts so hopefully they should fit without too much trouble. Yer Carbon Bonnet makes a difference as well.....where does zed ownership end....empty pockets me thinks buying all this stuff for the car.....better not let the mrs see this.. :hyper:
