Hello all, my first post as an owner of a FIA-bodied 289 replica built by Dave Brookes here in the UK. The car is currently in the paintshop, so now is the time to sort out all the little details and make it as period-correct looking as possible!

I am wondering if the bulkhead (or firewall) behind the seats is available as a part. In most of the photos of original factory racecars and in the cars that race at Goodwood etc. there seem to be strengthening ridges that are stamped into the aluminium panel. My car has a simple flat piece of aluminium cut to fit and riveted in, which doesn't look very nice.

Does anyone know if it's something that I could buy or will I have to speak to a fabricator to get one made?

Thank you
