That seats a right bargain and I like those bonnet pins very cool. What did you make the rear diffuser from?

Cheers Chris and the rear diffuser is just made out of some offcuts of upvc lol

lol a bit of window sill, excellent improvisation mate looks cool, very blue peter

received a new suede deep dish steering wheel today to replace the momo wheel

 

and also ordered a snap off boss for the steering wheel,an ebay short shift gear lever with gear knob as i thought with it having no console now an exposed alloy shifter would look better and also a pair of fiberglass focus rs replica bonnet vents.

received the new shifter

 

bonnet vents

 

and the quick release steering wheel boss which i've fitted,requested black but they sent blue but couldn't be bothered with the hassle of returning it so blue will do

 

Blue boss looks cool, as does the wheel!

Dont know whether to be happy or sad when reading the updates on this thread....

Happy as ive no doupt it will look awesome once again... sad as I've a horrible feeling this will be this cars last incarnation...

how do bonnet vents not leak water into engine bay?

Cheers Paul,yes I reckon this will be its last incarnation but should hopefully be around for a while yet as I don't need to use it daily now and I'm sure most people will hate it when it's done but I don't really care,it's all good fun

And the vents will let in water to an extent but I'm not bothered really,it's all about the silly ott look rather than been functional,just don't fit them directly above electrical items or you can put a shield underneath to direct the water away

Yep my sapphire cossie's bonnet vents used to let in water. Just onto the inner wings so never was an issue

Well got a few jobs done today 

 

removed all the excess wiring for sound system etc

 

removed the window tints

 

removed the the remaining sound deadening from the floor and boot floor and then painted it all up

 

fitted the short shifter

 

removed the dash as i'm going to get it flocked by a local guy

 

 

and picked up these seats the other day,as i was after a temporary passenger seat until i find something better and this hardly used pair came up locally and only need one but it was only £50 for the pair

Been a busy boy there mate looking good.

That looks really awesome - big kahoonas dude! Look forward to seeing it some time...

I have no sounds anymore,took it all out lol

I started off just removing the boot install,amps,sub,cd changer and rear speakers and I was going to leave the rest but there was wiring everywhere so today I decided it can all come out so dash monitor,navigation,media player,front components and for good measure the hands free kit and reverse camera lol

Four wheels and a seat soon then... Very Barney Rubble...

lol i do try and find a bargain if i can

 

just won some black 9.5x18 rota grid drifts on ebay and if all goes well with the sale i should collect them this week 

there the lower offset et 23 ones so may poke a bit but there was always the plan for rivet on arch extensions and it would save me spacing an et38 set a lot more to fill the arches but we'll see what happens with the deal and work it from there 

 

anyway i got a couple of small jobs done today 

ridiculous wing is on 

 

 

and got the aero bonnet catches cut in and the bonnet vent holes cut but got rained off but hopefully get them bonded in next week 

Yes!!

That is all

No!!!
