Nope. Its a 3 colour car already! Adding black is not a good look for me. It also makes the spolier look smaller... which I don't like. Love the look of it all orange.

Well overridden Martooon. Orange again please chaps

Just asked them to paint the Chequer floor black as well. I know it may scratch up after a while, but I think it will look alot better
Porkie,

Car looks great and i would'nt want to question the guys doing the work..but if you would be interested i could get you a couple of these for the floor should you be interested
Looking good as usaul mate, but I am more than happy with mine once black Not actually a massive carbon fan to be honest. hence the black door cards are black plastic stuff. Might get the dash stuff replaced too. New switch panels and AFR gauge hold and laptimer all to go in.... after the SPAs have been serviced... only 5 out of the 6 backlights needed replacing and a bargain £30.... EACH +vat + LMHtax no doubt!

Pmsl @ stuff, I think that stuff looks spot on Lee.

Be good to see the car all pristine again, was looking tired at Combe on Rally Day...... had a hard year but what a good year you have had.
A well earnt spruce is just what the Doc ordred.

Are you changing any mechanical specs over the winter.

looking very good everyone, but there is one thing id have done differently

when i had my windows fitted, i found that sitting them on the frame made them look too far it, and said this to the guy that fitted them, so he used some 3 or 4mm thick foam strips dotted about for the window to sit on as well as the bonding stuff.

lokks propper IMO



appologies if the twins have also done this, i cant see in the pics

Right small update ,Lee asked us to make up some rear door cards to fill the big holes and also to fit some stowage netting (still to do this ).


Front bumper blown in.

Foot plates back from the powder coaters.

Next i am doing a custom pod to replace the vent to house a laptimer and an afr gauge ,the switches in here will be relocated .


More progress soon .
