Some more done. I just need to weld up all the joins.







Oh, and polish it!

Sweet. Where are the seats from

norton 13th January 2017 06:37 PM

These but with black piping. http://www.passionauto.co.uk/product...-kit-cars.html

I bought mine via eBay though from a chap who bought but never used them.

How snug are they

Looking the part mate very impressed with the quality of your build.

What have you covered back panel and sides of tunnel in?

Gary

norton 13th January 2017 07:13 PM

In the car, very. On me (I'm a 12st rake) they're a glove.

Thanks Gary! The back panel is a carbon look vinyl wrap where's the tunnel is just satin black paint.

Hi mate

I like that very much where did you get the vinyl from? Did the paint etch to the alli ok

eBay. Carbon look vinyl wrap is everywhere! I used an etch primer on a keyed surface so the paint has held on well. I used the Simoniz tough black satin spray and it cures very hard. I've not chipped it yet despite my clumsiness.

Cheers mate


Gary :D

I managed to get an hour in the garage today so I tackled some more of the trans tunnel.





That's a cv boot around the gear stick. I need some heat shrink to secure the rather than a cable tie. Also that carbon wrap is going, satin black is more preferable.
