S15 carbon Cooling panel

[EPRacing]

I have just had 5 of those S15 cooling panels arrive in stock :D

the quality looks very good and hopefully the fitment should be good as well as its fresh mould. :D

The price for the Carbon Cooling Panel is a very reasonable £135.00 :D

as usual you may need to widen the bolt holes a little as they tend to be a little bit smaller than normal, but this is mainly due to the manufacturing process.

You don't have a feedback section so i thought i would post here,

Although you say 'you may need to widen the bolt holes a little as they tend to be a little bit smaller than normal' this is not in fact the case, every single hole is the perfect size. Unfortunately though they arent all in the correct place. There are 18 holes in the panel, not including the two large ones for the latch mechanism. Of those 18 holes, 5 are in the correct place and the other 13 need to be adjusted to some extent with a round file. Some holes only need the lightest of rubs with the file while others needed to be altered to the extent where the whole is almost completely out of line, the three at the front of the slam panel lining up with the front bumper are some of the worst. While we are still on the subject of holes, there are two hole 'missing' if you will, circled in blue, behind here are two clips for the loom which you have to unclip and leave dangling, there are also two more hole for clips 'missing' at the edges of the front bumper going to the headlight supports (not in picture). See pictures 'A', 'B', 'C' and 'D' for hole allignment, in pictrure 'D' red circles indicate alterations needed, green indicates perfect fit and the blue is where the two loom clips are. Thats about it with regards to holes in the panel, let's move on to fitment.



Once all the holes have been alighned i began to bolt the panel down i started with the 6 or so bolts and nuts along the top of the panel once these had all being screwed on i was left with a small issue. See pictures 'E' and 'F'. with the panel in place and lined up the bottom of the cooling panel sits about an inch high of where it should. Taking off the back nuts and bolts seems to have no effect in closing the gap up. The panel is nearly flexible enough that you can push down on it to line it up, and get the clips in which will hopefully hold it under load. The only problem is when you do hold it in place it's quite likely that the small piece of carbon circled in yellow in picture 'G' will snap/crack as it did on mine.

I'm not posting this to have a go, or to expect some kind of refund, this is simply to inform you of issues that you might not be aware of if this is a fresh mould/batch.
