On the flip side. Parts are on the car and not hoarded away.

Really?...

Knowing I have numerous other priorities meaning I wouldn't be able to practically build or truly concentrate on or enjoy building my 4th gen, I now instead have over £20k (RRP) worth of parts that I've collected over 5 years, as a result spent no where near £20k and therefore felt no dent to my wallet. You'd rather I saved what money I have spent and then expect to find those same prices or better once I do have the time to crack on?... No thanks!

With the amount of self burns Ratty has been giving himself isn't he entitled to at least one? :D

Are you sure about that? It's definitely not upside down... Look at the curvature and also the fixng points for the larger fin are underneath. If it was spun around 180 degrees then it would probably be better as the flicks would be at the rear, but then the smaller fin would serve no purpose.

I'd say it's just been assembled wrong. It needs to be taken apart, each fin rotated 180 degrees on a vertical axis, then the larger fin place at the front bottom, the smaller fin at the rear top, and the end plates rotated 180 degrees on a horizontal axis and bolted back together.

I didn't want to buy a pre-built lump, I want to do it myself and with the best bits. It wasn't going to happen for me any other way.

Besides, I have the 5th gen for my fix until then ;)
