Got my car back from the bodyshop!

well I've got it back after 6 / 7 weeks I need to fit mesh and other bits like 2nd mirror etc... but it gives you the idea of the finished car. Only words I have is ignore exhaust pipe it will be changed to look right.

I'm very happy with work they've done, after all the whole car is fibreglass including the whole door.

Picture Heavy!!

WOWZER!! That's stunning!!

I think I'd swap the headlight cover screws for black ones so they a look a little less 'bolt-on'.

Yes , it seems a bit petty and "diss the screws" when the rest is so stunning, but I agree will look a bit more 'factory'.

Top job, look forward to seeing it

Nothing is ever wrong with a bit of advice! And something well worth doing in this case when I take everything apart to clean all the dust off everything...and I mean everything

WOW. What a difference that paint job has made.

It has my vote as the best looking non replica kit car, although obviously influenced by the mac F1.





I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.
