Oil Cooler

When I first saw the rear wing, I was wondering why there is a vertical thing right under it. I've seen the road version of Ur-Quattro, there isn't such a thing there. Thank goodness I did not cut that off. In the 1981 rally car, Audi put the oil cooler right under the rear spoiler. The kit came with a piece of photo etched for the rear face of the oil cooler. But for the front that is facing the rear window, nothing but a piece of decal. That is not very realistic. The solution? Fabricate!

A couple pieces of brass rods, 2 pieces of brass; solder, file and drill; painted black and dry brush gun metal over...
