Sylva striker rear bodywork

Hi guys,

For those of you with a striker, any chance of some pics of how you have mounted the rear bodywork on your kits?
I'm looking at mine and it's obvious how to mount by the cabin, but i just can't work out the rear bit, i'm assuming i need some kind of extension brackets but not really sure what/how to do it...

regards,
andy

thanks very much.
So it's basically just a right angled bit of ally from the rear chassis... Do the holes get covered by where the number plate are?

I fiberglassed some brackets to the rear tub that I then bolted to some tags I welded to the chassis.sorry no pics.all is say is try to spread the load over the fiberglass as much as you can however you choose to do it,cause it is perfect arse resting height,and when,not if,some idiot sits on it you don't want it cracking around your mounting points!

mine is mounted with 2 bits of alloy bolted to the chassis by the rear trailing arm bolts. then 2 of the bolts that secure the arch's to the rear tub bolt through that.
thinking about it there is no support in the center at all. doesn't seem to be an issue though
