Nice Fab work on the new airbox <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

That is an awful lot of metal taken out of the inner guard <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />.

Ae you worried at all about cracking and fatigue of the inner guard or any structural weakness through the front end now with that much metal taken out?Would it have been better to cut out a circle for the pipe work to go through with a hole saw opposed leaving a huge gap there? There is a lot of space for mud and water to flow in easily into your engine bay along with your front tyres forcing mud in with your brake and clutch reservoir very close and your MAF plug facing down. t could potentially cause issues.

All the best with it and let us know how it goes after your next few dirty excursions.

Really do like what you have done with your Sporty. Especially the bar work.
