Getting there

Pretty much finished the dash now, just need to fit the steering column cowl:-



Made some more carbon components, kick plates, one light holder, (another 4 to make), and a length of angle fo light brackets and a few other things:-



Fitted one kick plate :_



And wrapped the exhaust to keep SVA man happy, theres a few sharpish edges now under wraps!



Hopefully the Hayabusa will pull it all along nicely...........





If its broke, fix it. If it aint broke, take it apart and find out how it works!

Looking good. The matt finish on the carbon should stop glare off the dash which a lot of people don't consider.

Prefer the satin finish, its a bit harder to do and you cant maintain it, (ie polish!), but it looks far less bling!

Made moulds for the transmission tunnel, rear wings, front cycle wings and bonnet scoop so Ill post a few more piccys when Ive got those made.

Did someone mention a bonnet scoop? I would be keen to take a look at one of those of you decide to knock any out.
