Hooorraaaayyyyyy! My new front section!
It took much, much longer than anticipated but it is finally here.
Here are a few rushed pics - just plonked on the car to get some of the effect.
I will post a few more when it is fitted.

It's a bit cramped in my garage but here's another pic
It took 3 months of weekends to make the plug from the original 'square' version and a further 4 months to wait for the mould maker to get
his A into G, but it is nice to see my design immortalised and offered to punters.

Awwwwww you flatterer
Seriously though, my aim was to bring the design into this century while keeping the obvious GT links with the older design. I didn't intend to
mimic any classics like Porsche, Ferrari etc but if people think it has echoes of those cars then, wayhay I'm happy!
