Well all i can say its been a while LOL

Mmmmmmmmmm where do i start

After a nice holiday in turkey last month i started cracking on with the S2.

Started removing all underseal from rear arches, took ages and ages

Lookng sorry for itself


Rear spit mounting bar offered up after measuring and drilling holes out for where it mounts where the bumper fixes too


Removed the front floor pan sound pads with a little heat and got the grinder out. It didnt look pretty ale: but these will be cut out in the right places so that you wont even be able to tell they have been done







The seat mounts were totally shot so marked them out ready to be cut
and drilled out the spot welds so that the mount plate can be removed


Passenger side



I offered one of the genuine front headlight panels in and they fit perfect.
Both sides will be spot welded in and not the normal plug welds


Before i started chopping out the arches and sills etc i marked out where the edge of the body kit sits as i want to keep all cuts and welds under the kit. I was told if you cut out panels where the eye can see you can never get them right




I then marked out my cut line on the bodywork.
I kept it 15mm below the kit line on the rear arches and 30mm below on the sills.
I also had a long think on how i would mark out and re attach the centre bodykit section mount as you couldnt do it afterwards on the new sill, well you could do using a template but if your out 3-5mm when welding new sill on that could make all the difference in getting perfect lines on the kit, so i thought i would cut just below the mount holes so that ive got an original base to mount the centre section and mark rest of holes




Then its chop chop chop ale:
