Dax Nose Guard

I've seen some pictures of a chrome bar that sits in the middle of the mouth of the nose cone on this site. I think Dave Brooks has fitted them. Are these bought from Dax or somewhere else. I have a mat black one from Dax which came with the SVA kit, but it loooks a bit naff.

Re: Dax Nose Guard

Mike, only a small point but did you really have to use a BLUE zip tie on the fan wiring and without even clipping the end off????????

Re: Dax Nose Guard

I would hazzard a guess that a piece of 3/4 chromed copper pipe from B&Q would be much cheaper than tha dax part.

Yes but a pipe wouldn't act like a spoiler, mine is an angled SS plate, which does put downforce on the front wheels. :thumb:
