interiors going a dark anthracite with black cage, not sure i should chop the inner door and quater panels out to make it lighter what do you guys think??

made a little start on the underseal

bonnet pins fitted! old skool ones i know but they will stop the bonnet flying up, until the carbon replacement is fitted
and just a few with the bumper on as i dont believe i taken any with it on
and the garage needs a bloody good tidy out


hope you all like so far

Good progress matey, might save you a kilo or two by chopping/drilling the quarters mightn't it
Are you putting any type of door card on? Ally or carbon?
Looking good though mate.

I prefer a dash personally but if its all stripped out and light-weight maybe a dash wouldn't be as suitable. Each to their own i guess.

well nothings really been done to this as yet, as ive stripped it down complete bare. all the parts have been used to for my other s2. and this is looking very sorry for its self on axle stands loadsa ideas for it including cossie 4x4 turbo. but we shall see, as i want this one at fordfair, so i will start a completely new thread and a clean slate for when we start it

i just dont know if i should keep the colour, or repaint it in the original diamond white, ive got all the parts for it bar the brakes and maybe some fancy wheels, would like some feed back off you guys about the colour???
