How do you measure for the proper placement of the front and rear bumper guards, and for the two rear reflectors?

According to CMC build manual available here (page V-6). Mark center of car and measure 13.5" either side for the mounting brackets to chassis --- then use inner bolts for the bumper guard/over-ridders. Same measurement front and back. No help on reflectors
Wolfie, check this pdf out, I got it from Manny (from South Africa), it's a very useful bunch of sketches with measurements for all the trim, lights, bumper guards and gauges on a Speedster.

Perfect!
Wow. That trim dimensions PDF belongs in the Knowledgebase, or Articles, or wherever reference material like that should be kept!
I think I'll go check all of Henry's measurements on my IM. (Just kidding Henry!)
I meant that pdf for Wombat, not Wolfie. It is a great reference even if the steering wheel's on the wrong side...
I didn't think that there was a standard placement for rear reflectors as they were a dealer added option. I've seen them in old photos and they appear to be all over the place. Perhaps I am mistaken.
Please take note the PDF file is for reference only.
