Whilst awaiting for parts to arrive, and for my finances to sort themselves out, I took another look at the side skirt situation..
I originally had this set up, which was OK, but not what I was looking for..
So I attacked them today, to see what I could do..
First off, I managed to trim them so they do not stick out as far, and meet up with both the rear door extension, and the front wing.
Next I decided that they were simply too deep, so I chopped them in two..
Here you can see the 25mm I intend to chop out..
Chopped, and stuck together..
Next job, fibreglass matting and resin..
Old and new..
On..
All the glass has been fitted, along with roof trims and door mirrors.
The interior is now in a state where it can be kept clean, ready for the interior work to begin..
I also managed to get both side skirts modified and in primer, along with the rear bumper.
You can see I've also smoothed out the swage line in the lower half of the bumper, as it no longer has to 'match' the OEM side skirts..
Also a quick shot of the spacers I have had to make in order to push the
OEM rear bumper out to meet the arches..
Side skirts and rear bumper are painted, and bumper is fitted.
Managed to get hold of this also...
Nice carbon jobbie form Chargespeed...Awesome quality, and much cheaper than other offerings..
