eccsmk - 6/7/10 at 04:04 PM

ive been in the garage again changing a few bits i didnt like on the indy

firstly the leaking generstor cover was replaced
while the engine was out i re-wired the engine bay
and then replaced the ali panels as they were starting to look tired





then all the stickers were removed from the side panels and replaced with a pin stripe
altho this may go soon as im not 100% happy with it




while doing all this the bolts that were taken off were replaced with either titanium or aluminium bots

im waiting on a new sump gasket and the copper rings that go into the head before the exhaust headers (they were meant to be here this morning )

ive also started work on a new tunnel top but dont have any pics yet

unfortunately i made the biggest mistake ever

i went out for a drive in it again

but im scrapping the 306 as im running short on space

Nice refresh.. but agree with the 'not sure on the stripe' comment. Its bit 'lost'. You want either something obvious or nothing at all.

(ps is the bonnet a slightly different shade?)

Sorry, yes I agree in the negative, the stripe is wrong

i know the bonnet is slightly different but it doesnt look that bad when your driving and wearing a tinted visor

i think the stripe may go
also the tunnel is now finished and the battery now has an alloy cover
pics will be up later in the week

Hi mate, what tyres are you running ?
The tread on them looks good.

if you do buy the fibreglass kit complete
ive just got my rear panel fitted and its a different colour to the other colours on the car
im guessing the pigment isnt always added to the gelcoat in equal amounts
