Hope you all had a good weekend. I finally managed to get my rear arches fitted after listening to the advice of those of you who have already finished.
All I want to check now is if you think my exhaust looks ok in relation to arches.
See attached Pic
Cheers

Blooming heck Gus your build is progressing at a fair old rate :) :cool:
The bottom pipe look's somewhere near the right mark.
I think I would ditch the one on the nosecone, that's going to foul the front wings :D :D

Looking really good,
i agree the bottom pipe looks the part, you'll have to take all the others off now.......;)
Looks like you've got a cvh engine, if your using the original manifold it's easy to get the exhaust out to the side and bottom to exit.
Just noticed i think your handbrake needs tightening up, too much play on handle, unless the hulk has pulled it on.....

Beautiful, really beautiful. Shame the top one means the bonnet won't open because the trim panel is bolted to the bonnet and the side panel:D
It's little details like that can ruin a build day. Still think you could get a few more exhausts on there though:) How about one for each seat? It would make winter driving much better. Probably.

Thanks for the comments guys.
The picture you see is the picture my dad put on the front of my birthday card. With the following caption 'Mark always wanted a car with twin exhausts, but thinks he might have gone a bit to far at the design stage'
As you can tell he likes taking pictures & photoshopping them!!
Funny you should say that Handy, that is what he wrote inside the card.
Spud, you're right. I have got to adjust the handbrake some more.
To put all your minds at ease, the bottom exhaust is the real one.
Josh, Ill try and find out what the wheels are. I bought them off a bloke at work for £200.00 including the tyres & having them repainted black.
Cheers

With so many silencers it must be really silent indeed!
