Thankyou. It will get even more ridiculous when we get to the engine. Can't wait also

Small updates but as always it seems with this car plans have changed. People have realised there not up to the job and informed us at the eleventh hour so again a small setback but luckily were spoilt for choice for people who would like to be involved. Painters are making progress anyhow and we will see big steps in the up and coming weeks........

I do like how you have smoothed the front bumper strips in leaving only the spray nozzle covers. I was thinking about that some time ago for when I get my ED30 lip spoiler and the bumper resprayed, but always wondered if it would look odd. Can't wait to see yours finished and painted to see how it looks.

Yeah it was a difficult decision for me tbh but I've seen them either completely smoothed or left standard. I try to be different. Hopefully wont be long before you see the finished piece. Hopefully........
Cheers for looking in.....

Your gonna smooth the bonnet onto the wings? How will u check oils or do any servicing or did I read that wrong. I like the fuel cap idea where u planning on putting the filler cap if your sealing off the tailgate or did I read that wrong too

Sorry Stu, thought you was messing with the bumper quote. None of it will be smoothed together, its only prep work and the bumper and all other panels will be removable as standard.....
