Front Splitter Holes

[eru]

Hi,

I am looking for suitable material to use (other than mesh) to fill up the holes in the front lower splitter on my stagea. I am trying to make it look professional and I can't find suitable material that is stronger than mesh. Preferably I want them filled out so the grill material is flush with the front edge of the left, centre and right holes in the splitter.

Are there any pre-built inserts for the splitter I could buy?

Or does anyone have an idea of a good material to use that I could get custom fabricated to fit?

Thanks for your ideas.

There should be an image of the front splitter attached in case it helps.

Are you wanting to block off the airflow or retain it? If the latter there is a wide variety of mesh like material available. I know of a place in my city to get it so I imagine if you phoned around a few engineers supplies shops you should be able to find something to your liking.

Thanks for replying.

I want to retain the airflow. I'm in Ireland - not too many Stagea's here - and the materials for this sort of thing seem to be chicken-wire ... not nice.

I'm looking for something similar to that used in the rear-end of a murcielago ... I know it sounds far-fetched but it would look the business in those air-holes in the Stagea front-splitter.

Step1: Find a friendly surgeon who is willing to remove any non-vital internal organs you can spare.

Step2: Give Lambo parts a call (preferably in a seated position)

Step3: use organs as a downpayment for mesh, and get Lambo to agree to accept your firstborn child for the remainder

Step4: fit mesh.

Alternatively, a decent metalworker could probably create something similar in the right dimensions, but I imagine it would be at significant cost...

hay eru you should be able to get something simular from a sheetmetal supplyer . i know here in australia they make a product that is made from stainless steel and it comes in diffrent grades (ie shinyness ) .

I only found one on Aus Ebay, in Taiwan. But heaps on the US site. Search for perforated mesh or round hole mesh. I dont like the expanded mesh personally.

I love the rims on that Murcielago.
