Have a few stickers that are peeling up, so I'll go back around with superglue in a bit. Still letting the clear coat dry.
Stole this idea from Gtstripes and Andre3th0u. :oops:

I think it would look sweet, and I could take it off whenever I want, so I'm gonna pick up some sheet metal probably tomorrow! I'll probably do a DIY on it :thumb:

- Tue Jul 01, 2014 1:05 am #346872 Okay made some Winglets/Canards :thumb:

I started by making some cardboard mockups. I don't know the exact dimensions :oops:

Then I went out to Home Depot and got a 1'x1' piece of 1/16" Galvanized Steel and some cheap black paint.

Traced the mockup onto the metal.

The I cut them both out with large tin snips.
Image
Image

I went outside and bent them with a Vice grip.
Image
Image
Image
Image

Then painted them with 3-5 coats of the black paint.

:thumb: I think they look boss. Will have pics of them installed tomorrow.
