Carboned boot strip fitted, hope to get bonnet on this week.

but my exhaust is blowing real bad from decat and mid section so I went to see MIJ Performance who did my Jag exhaust and they can replace the flanges for me, they’re old and well used and are bending under bolt load so don’t clamp gaskets.

I also asked them for a quote on changing tail pipe, as even though my exhaust is good the back back tail pipe seems a little small to me, they’re also able to change this. Booked in for wnd of week.

The headlight air scoop will be ideal for feeding the air filter.

When I started doing carbon last year I had lots of people asking, I did a fair bit for some people but its a big task.

lots of people want it but also realised those sane people don’t liks the price tag.
You’ll fund skinning is hard than making from a plug as with a plug the works done, then every mould is easy. Lots of labour involved in skinning, I got fed up of people bot understanding and stopped helping people out with it.
