Picked up some of the new panels today - rear 1/4's in carbon. Got the rest of the car's panels coming too, but needed these in a hurry to carry on with the build.
Also ordered the new turbo - GTX3076r with a .82 TiAL housing, TiAL MVR 44mm wastegate and TiAL Q bov. Got that to look forward to next!

Had some time on the car today. Most of the jobs now are daft little bits like this that are very time consuming. Anyway - here's a handful of rollcage gussets. Most of the day was spent making the die to press the flared holes. Once that was out of the way the gussets only took an hour or so 
It'll come in handy in the future though I'm sure!

Started on the rear bodywork this afternoon. One panel trimmed and temporarily held in place. Need to mark out where the arches need cutting in the morning and get stuck in.
Not the usual method for fitting theses panels, as in there'll be no filling and smoothing - she's no show pony, so would much rather have the practicality of an easy panel swap, rather than weeks in the body shop every time I break it

Got the parts for my rear uprights back from the laser cutters today. Once the passenger rear arch is on I'll start on these:
Also the inner arch just about complete - two small pieces to fill gaps at each end, then that's another job off the list.

To me that's one of the main draws of Gems though - can't see many other manufactures being willing to do that for a customer
