New top mounts, which means my strut tops being removed to make them all fit.
new fuel cell mountings and tray.
and perspex windows.

and a few discreet other little touches

Michael, youve never met Kim, she wasnt at the Brands day - but im sure you will meet her at some point.
track wheels are going to be orange, hadnt thought about the cage being that colour until Paul mentioned it above - do you think orange cage in a green car will look a bit odd?


JB, cheers mate - its more of a shonky old escort tho

Rich, at the moment im unsure, ive got until it comes back to make up my mind as its pretty much going into the bodyshop when its gets back, im kind of liking it back on from some angles, and it does effect its feel on the road having it removed!!

Paul, i was going to go anthracite - but im having the whole inside of the car painted at once so possiby going completely orange interior may be OTT

Doing the whole inside ORANGE maybe a bit too much but i think the cage would look good. Anthracite inside will look cool thou
