To secure the leading edge? How?Dave, I think that a couple of pip pins would do just as well.
Not sure if you meant to replace the hinge with the pip-pins but if you did, the front clip will not pivot due to the forward extension of the front splitter. The clip will have to pivot up-and-away to clear the splitter.Dave, through the rad support panels inside the brake duct area of the front clip
(sideways). You may need an small extension aluminum panel if your shaped support panels are the newer style.
Did he try the large or small version of the Watson's hinge?The hinge geometry for the Watson's are "almost".
The splitter support struts will be and should be used along with some Al angle as you described.I do get your point of cam-locks. I was more thinking of securing the front clip than the splitter. Wouldn't an aluminum angle fastened along the outside of the rad support panels, and in turn, fastened to the splitter suffice? Along with splitter support struts on each side and two in the front. That was my plan (until now, maybe).
