Made a new fairing for my roofrack

Well, last Tuesday i went over to John's shop to borrow his sandblaster. I had a unique idea for a wind fairing for my home built roof rack. I wanted to take some old license plates, sand blast them and rivet them together to create a solid single piece. I'm planning on painting it black once its finished.

After I sandblasted the plates, they came out with a really cool distressed texture, which I'm thinking of leaving as-is... we'll see.


John had some scrap stainless that we cut & bent to fit. We both strained quite a bit trying to get the holes drilled.

it took a few tries to get everything to fit correctly.


The finished product!

Nice! Starting to get a Mad Max vibe going.
