IVA fail, last one.

Finger trouble again.

The last problematic fail point relates to the K&N's which poke out of the side of the bonnet, the radius of the end plates is less than the required 3mm so I need a method of rounding the edges off or fitting some sort of cover, so again suggestions please.

Could you fit foam filters for the test?

these should do if you have trumpets....

I did consider that but I'm thinking that the foam isn't really going to give much protection to the sharp edges of the trumpets.

I'm not going to fret overmuch about this one as he pointed it out to me but forgot to add it to the official fail list so what I may do is find some 3/4 round rubber edging and superglue it on.

Do the trumpets stick out beyond the bonnet? If within the engine bay then you’d be OK for the test with foam.

I thought once you’re passed you can revert back ;-)

Got a photo?

The trumpets are just within the bonnet opening but I think they could still be contacted by the 100mm sphere.

CCC rubber trim that's used for mudguard edges and chassis holes works OK, the wider edge needs trimming down and then neatly superglued on to the edges of the filter covers.

Another one bites the dust.......
