Front wheel deflector

Got a quarter of hour today... so here is the front wheel deflector :
  • From the front :

Picture taken with both right wheels aligned.
  • From the side :


You can compare both pictures with the ones of the uglyteeth a few posts backward. You can see that more wheel is hidden and a safe ground clearance has been used : 5.3in instead of 2.4in for the teeth. Also the front side of the deflector has been cut to push forward the lower part of the grill block and the uglyteeth.

"Sadly" I built only one deflector and decided to focus on another quarter of hour project...

Denis.
