Mmmh, job and a half :rolleyes:

- Took 1hr of stripping, expected.

- 2hrs of refinishing the carbon fiber, since the mounting clips were way off. Granted, its a super complex part to mould, but I expected something a little closer to being installable and ready to go

- 1hr to mount the damn piece onto the brake light assembly

- 1/2hr for cleaning all the body panels, since they were off :p

- 1hr to rebuild

Fook :eek:

Pics.....

Thought this was overkill strip down, its just 8-clips, 4 of which you can easily see and touch. Noooooo:confused:

So, more parts come off.....

Bend, file, dremel, lubricate and finally bash to install, but its nice :p

Well done. Matches the DP tail tidy very well. Did you get the CF air vents ? I found the under tray easy to install, however the air vents were a little tricky. Worth it though.

No vents yet, but they would have been pretty simple, as I had everything out and off to wiggle the tray on.

All good fun though :)

Settings are set into Sport mode, so I'll flick between these and what I run in Race mode this weekend.

Stupid hot so difficult to ride after 8am :eek:

Sounds good. You should be able to see an immediate difference, as long as you did both front and rear preload :cool:
 
Luckily I had the assistance of two other forum members when installing this piece XBox. You are right of it being a bitch while trying to align and connect all the tiny tabs and crap while holding the tray up into place! :)

That's a shame. I'm glad my CDT was a direct replacement with no bending, filling, dremelling, lubricating or bashing to install. Just slipped right on.

How does the CDT match with DP Carbon ?

My under seat tail tray is CDT (satin) you can find photos of it with the DP Carbon tail tidy in my member gallery. While CDT is a close to DP carbon, Carbonvanni is the closest out of the two.
