Cheers for the comments,
All i have done since last time is put half the front cage in and realised that the front door card won't go in,

Safety Devises have said they will not do anything to try and sort this

so i am now going for carbon fibre door cards

Will get some more pics up as soon as i get some time to do some work on it.

Gav Diamond · 21-04-2004, 06:43 PM

Done a little on the interior and made a start on the underside

Not going bufty or anything just want to clean it up and re-stone chip / waxoyl it.

mk2rstaff · 21-04-2004, 07:18 PM

i thinking of doing that to mine, under the arches i mean, i was just gonna clean it all up then hammerite the underside.

Tony Turbo · 21-04-2004, 08:00 PM

Looking good Gav

I know what ya mean, i just want it to look tidy on the underside.
Going to clean it all up then stonechip and waxoyl, thats why i was not bothered about overspray as i was going to do it anyway, once that is done i can put the body kit back on.

Cheers Tony i notice yours is coming along nicely aswell, also Damo has sorted me some tape out to put my arches back on so i have got to keep an eye on yours so i know how to do mine.

sunny · 07-06-2004, 03:48 AM

Excellent....looks like your doing it properly.

Good Luck Dude!

Thanks - Sunny.

Still haven't got the car back from Safety Devises so here are a few pics of the bits that still need to go on the car.

Still need to get more aswell

Vic · 08-06-2004, 05:07 PM

Gav Diamond,

If you're still going carbon fibre door cards:

where and how much?

Keep up the good work!

Gav Diamond · 08-06-2004, 05:53 PM

I am now keeping the standard ones as i have got safety devices to alter/put the cage right. Been 3 weeks now, and still waiting for me car back

Was going to just get a sheet of carbon and cut it to size.
Scotty at A1 Rally Sport was going to sort it, but i no longer need it.

Darrone · 08-06-2004, 06:20 PM

Them rear lights look quite cool. Where did you get them from mate? And how much?

Damo V · 08-06-2004, 09:58 PM

What the hell is a snap strap

Long shot ... would nt something for the bonnet would it?

Tony Turbo · 08-06-2004, 10:44 PM

Snap Strap is what you use to fix the heat wrap down with

Gav - Very nice lot of new bits there. People like us keep places in business. Is that a GGR cone and trumpet? Reason I ask is Damo has one of them

No news from SD then?

Damo V · 08-06-2004, 10:48 PM

Ah I see... you putting a florida futon / bunk bed in the car too Gav

Tony Turbo · 08-06-2004, 10:50 PM
