Knowing how exacting you are being, they look a little out of place. (This coming from the man with a 1989 Golf)

I know mate. Im a fussy sod. I dont like the powdercoat on the rials so i think im going to polish them. So i may have the blue fittings either silver or black.

Proto #2 is ready to test fit. Numerous changes to this one but the finished article should look a lot more like this. This is only a rough one. The final will be much neater.
Please excuse the phone pic, I've uploaded this direct as I'm excited to show you all some development.

Okay guys, heres some snaps of proto #2 with a trail instalation. The fit this time is much much better.
Its now ready to have the air feed put in and then test fit once more.
Once the air feed is in and im happy we can go ahead and get a final one made up, cut tidy and actually installed.
Its amazing how much more room this provides for the air filter in the engine bay.

Makes you wonder why the factory didn't do that?
Excellent work. What will the finished version be made of?

Same stuff Stu, its 3mm ABS. Its very strong but offers some flex where needed.
Will be perfect for the job i think. I might paint it, might leave it black as is. It will be bonded in addition to a few rivets id imagine.

Sorry about the cak fone pic, but tonight i cut the hole for the turbo boost pipe. Im still going to modify the pipe bends so it fits a little cleaner but so far so good. This should keep the boost hose under the air filter and out of sight. Leaving the wingsert to do its job of just feeding in cold air to the filter without disruption or clutter from the boost pipework.

Quick snap of proto 3 now ready to test fit.
It now forms a complete panel to cover the inside of the wing. This one has the 83mm top hat in the bottom for my cold air feed.
So hopefully this one should be absolutely spot on in all areas and fit perfect as is. Once this is fitted and i get my power steering lines back i can get the motor dropped back in.
What do you think guys?

Okay guys,
Proto #3 of the wingsert is finished and slotted into place. Here it is just rested in with no fixings at all and as you can see it fits pretty much perfectly. Now it has a full molding of the inner wing so now makes for a much cleaner, tidier fitting part. Once this is bonded in i hope to make it look as much like an OEM part as possible.
Im really quite please at how this has come out.
Just this left to fit and the PAS lines to modify and then the bay will be ready to have the motor dropped back in.
