Some more progress today. The wing brackets are more or less done. I will cover them in a clear heat shrink to dull the edges some more and offer some stone protection.

The dash panel has also been widened, shaped to fit and given a carbon vinyl wrap

I need to make some decisions about the column. I don't want switch gear or an ignition barrel on it but it seems likely that using the oem MX5 gear will make life a lot easier. One of the stalks will be redundant though as I'm not fitting wipers so that'll bug me.
Has anyone had any success with using a bare column? I understand Caterham use wheel mounted indicator buttons or something?
