I checked and it does relocate it backwards. So you were right and I was wrong.

It does make more sense when you think of it tilted back in terms of aerodynamics.. but if you think of it in terms of downforce then tilted forward seems more logical..:blink:
But, to make any real use of the bonnet vents it would be more likely to be tilted back.. I only got told a while back it was relocated and was probably a border kit, but i could only say, "oh, right, ok..." because I had never heard of it and didn;t have a clue if he was right or talking rollocks :w00t:

first thing stunning i like as it stands..
second tilting forward would be really bad for downforce that would lift the front of the car at speed......tilted back the air pushes on the front and due to the angle of the rad the air rushing up and over the rad makes downforce.

Tilting it forwards would only make the radiator the same angle as the bulkhead directly behind it. The design of the bulkhead already lifts the front end at speed.

yes ours was scary at speed, I think the power steering being constantly on was the main issue, rather then the lift?
