It took a while to fabricate but oh boy is it worth it.
The car corners much flatter, feels more solid at the front end, and all those local corners I know so well can be taken 10mph more quickly and with much more confidence. Clearly the 172 front end is a thing of fragility as the stiffening has transformed it. Yes that's wood btw, a long way from any real heat and I'm sure the plastic would melt before the wood caught on fire
