exhaust near panel
Great picture Kach22i, looks like a solid build.
yea I am aware of the hot exhaust and plan to either use metal between the exhaust and the coroplast, or metal in place of the coroplast. I had forgotten about the use of screen also.
My trouble is the exhaust is the lowest element in the central area, so im leaning towards metal in place of the coroplast in those zones.
I had the civic back on the hoist couple days ago, planning how and where to fix the panel on there... so I can prebuild the reinforcing structure. at the same time I measured the location of the exhaust, and tried to picture the shape of the finished panel - side to side and the rear end curvature/ diffuser.
otherwise its fairly flat.
I also chucked on a lower grill block for the winter, as I reside in Sask, Canada, and took the panel to the carwash to clean er up.
I find that sometimes the fastest way to make a complicated part/thing is to jump in the deep end and start building it... wing it. rather than overdesigning it. helps when the material is free! no stress to get it perfect the first time.
