Re: SL Roadster sketches...

I really do like the split fender concept but I think you'd actually have to model it on an existing chassis and maybe run it across a wet surface to see where the water spray is deflected.. The spray will show where any debris will go also.. My point is this - If it's point of deflection is right toward the driver when the wheels are turned - it would necessitate a change to raise the rearward fenderlette (new word I just invented) to increase the deflection angle..
