i again have just read the info on the ACE site and even the powers that be are not sure.
It boils down to what parts are classed as monoque sp, we all have our own opinions on that, so it says that every car will be considered separately. it also does not go into enough detail about the identity side by removing part of the inner wing.

i think as long as people understand that there is a possibility of a IVA then thats a good thing.

Here's mine which bolt on via the shock mounts it gives a much more solid fixing than the thin bit of inner wing most bolt onto



Not the best pic I'm afraid.

i carry my children in my mini i want as much steel around us as possible

what about Minidarren83 he's very vocal on the subject and he's sure he is right, sounds like the right person to get his mini inspected and get this sorted once and for all

Minidarren83 are you willing to do this for the forum

this is my last note on the subject and my only point i ever make when replying to your arguments is that you yourself have not been told your info from the tescos beef mouth and it has ever only been your inturpritation of a few lines of text one of which you say states that 50% of a panel must remain (which it clearly does) so untill yourself has the clear info in written form from the relevent authorities you can not keep preaching possible wrong information it just is not right for you to do so. We have also discused on a previous thread that the reason that this is such a undecided subject is that there has never been any action taken by any of the vehicle and licencing authorities on the so grey area rules and as so nobody including you mr bungle really knows. so lets all do as ethal says either group hug or just walk away happy that in your inturpritation of the rules your car is fine and i will build my car just how i like along with my inturpritation of the rules

Seriously man get a different hobby I have no need to prove anything I am not preaching unlike you just disproving your theories it honestly does not bother me one single bit I am a happy man with everything I do to my car so as said plenty of times now shut the f up and let the thread be what it was for, designs of brace bars not you shoving your thoughts down everyone throat unless you have a brace bar to show or an idea to make one better than has already been seen go bother someone else I will no longer answer to you going on
