Loving your work! I was going to make my own but by the time I'd have got it powder coated it would have cost me as much as buying one Rolling Eyes

Good effort! Thumbs Up Want to do a DIY job on your car? Check out the definitive 'how to' thread in the technical section Thumbs Up

Cheers ,i just gave it a good coating of 2pack black gloss then lined it with 6mm rubber sheet so it doesnt rub on the tyre/wheel .
Time will tell if the paint is good enough under there . zx12r

Good piece of work Thumbs Up

If you have sealed the plate against the tyre with the rubber sheet it would be worth considering adding a drain hole at the lowest point. It is suprising how much water will get entrained and build up in there otherwise - even without wading.

Should be ok to be honest as the rubber does not seal that tight Thumbs Up zx12r
