Exhaust, cycle wings, harnesses, side repeaters, fog and reg lamps, engine breather system, air filter. SVA!
Nothing major, just wallet is a bit empty now.

lamps need leveling


Need rad cap




Instrumentation sorted, need to move oil temp sensor though. With such a big lump I'm worried about the temp of the oil and coolant.

Build cost.... seems to be spending more on tools than car bits at the moment! (they will be handy in the future though).
Car iva'd and passed 15/08/2014. Finished weight 572kg.

Looking great, not much left to spend there! get it done
Your a little a head of me, mainly with the dash and interior.
Hoping to have an little unexpected cash injection that could see me clear with a set of dash gauges. What make are yours, they look nice.
Also what carbon wrap did you get, so mnay dodgey ones on ebay.

Was your dash mdf adn covered if so how did you get the neat radius on the bottom?
