Realy nice car mate i love a good onion, i do think that you should paint the rear panel that the no plate screws onto, the same colour as your wheels tho that will look alot better and you have put so much care and detail into the car it would be a crime to not put nice new no plates on it that nasty old plate is ruining the rear end lol but keep up the good work.

Tonight just been getting the floor pan ready, final coat of paint etc. . . aiming to fit the fuel lines, brake lines and the fuel tank tommorrow night :mrgreen: Its looking nice and fresh on the underside :mrgreen: Sorry no pics of tonights progress for now 8)
Some more pics of yesterdays progress. . .
My mates saved the day yesterday. . . the flywheel got skimmed a while back and he noticed the flywheel was missing its dowls, a quick phone call to another mate ( XR2-Mart ) got me out of the s**t on a bank holiday

Mate again was on the ball, noticing the clutch arm was missing the pin which secures the release bearing. . . A few mins later the replacement was taken from a spare gearbox I had lying round. . .
So after abit of messing about with that we bolted the paddle clutch up and offered the box up to the block, bolted it together and hoisted it up towards the bay. . .
Finally the big day 8)

Wasnt gonna have it as was told a 3 inch system was needed but mapper's decided it'll do for this year til we upgrade the turbo over winter then will upgrade to a 3 inch system then. . .
FP's 2.5 inch system will mount up to the Focus RS Miltek downpipe nicely
