I have a set of OZ rallye mags that I'm not realistically going to use so am looking to sell them, 8x17", White, 2x need some paint inside, not a great paint finish but certainly not £1200! More like £600 to be honest. PM me if interested

Hi all had a couple of days off work so had a play with the cossie
test fit of the carbon rear quarter things
Rear number plate surround
And the cover for the plug leads
Then went to fit the oil filter relocation and cooler,found that the chassis engine mount fouled the take off :BangHead:
So need a different type!!
Test fit of the carbon grp A mirrors
need to bond them on to the door
Cut some carbon to mount the motec dash in the clocks and got some leds to use as warning lights oil/battery/high beam/ECT
Test fitted the rear beam
cleaned and painted the diff and drive shafts
Finished the near side front suspension
Got to make a spacer to lift the steering will do that near the end

Today I fitted some grp A 14mm wheel studs that I had made up and new wheel bearings
Carriers and drive flanges I shot blasted and painted.I cut off the stranded rear caliper mounting lugs to allow the fitment of the rear grp A brake brackets
