Windrestrictor Pics

**FishtailnZ** · 04-20-2008

Installed it a few days ago, about a 10 minute job - quick and easy and the mounting is nice and solid without any rattling or exposed screws. Works well at speed too even with the roll bar hoops left open. Guess the seat back stops the feeling of any buffeting through there. Couple quick pics...

Congratulations,

I SPY a set of O.Z wheels in store, so when are they going to be installed Bill ?

I like your new windrestrictor, The Mercedes logo and 55 looks very nice centered in the middle.

Thanks Mohammed! Re the wheels - shart eye LOL!, still waiting on a single bloody lugbolt to install them - can't find a correct set in my area, so I'm waiting on the replacement from Tirerack...should be here in a couple days though.

Bill those look nice and very very simple, which is a big plus.

I really like the 5 spokes that I've got and if only they were uglier I would consider something along those lines such as Carlsson U/L 16 or Kleemann Ts-6.

Simple is good, I hate cleaing the bazillion spoke stockers Mohammed - I've envied your 5 spoke design, they're much better looking too IMO. But these new wheels are for their weight saving over all else, they really are incredibly light for 18" - that they'll be easier to clean is a nice bonus though *L*.

Yup, from the site sponsor - and at a third of the cost of the MB piece, the price was right too! *L*
