Fitting Carbon CSR style Front cycle wings?
Hi,
I have just bought a pair of the carbon CSR style front cycle wings from KCD as per here, and had a question regarding fitting:
http://www.kitcardirect.co.uk/caterham-lotus-7-style-front-cycle-wing-mudguards-carbon-csr-15-pair.html
My current cycle wings are attached with two small bolts through the top front and top rear, and then a third larger bolt on the inside lip, to an
adjoining bracket as pictured below, however it seems that these cycle wings dont have enough of a lip on the inside to get away with putting a hole
on the inside lip to attaching to inside to the bracket...
Has anybody else fitted these to an indy?
Would I be able to get away with just the top two bolts only?
Also if anyone has any recommendations on some good thin and bendy edge trim woudl be greatly appreciated, last lot I just bought from woolies is too
thick and doesn't bend enough :-( I suppose thats what I get for not ordering a sample first.
Thanks!

Did you buy the car with the wings like that ? as indy wing stays go across the top under the wing and are mostly bonded to the wing's
thats what mine are like any way

Hmm, interesting. I had presumed this was a standard part as it came on the car like that when I bought it. Will get some pictures and have a go
taking on appart this weekend and will update!
