Gel over it......:p

Right full day again today, first job, I wanted to add a throttle return spring so the pedal felt a bit harder

And it turned out like a dream



Then made a sump plug to fit my oil temp sensor, fitted it with thermal cpu compound to try and help heat transfer



Bleed hole

Then got the engine bay loom wrapped back up with pvc loom tape



Then finished fitting my tunnel panels, I decided to use rivnuts and bolt them, I've not used a lot as I'm going to use dots of sealer to stop them rattling





Loom dropped back somewhere near

Pedal back stops done



Then sorted my brake light switch, took me a while to hatch a plan but I think it will work ok



Nice and adjustable



Then a switch will be mounted above so as soon as the pedal is touched it releases the switch

That was yesterday, then tonight I've made a little battery tray on my dads cnc



In place, just needs a little fitting



The clamp will be bolted from underneath the floor and hold everything in

Right well ordered my shocks from protech shocks, what can I say! A perfect service! Even did them all black for me! Well happy

Great idea re the colour!

Right, update time! It's been a while as I've had some issues with my bodywork from Equinox, it's took the shine of the whole project really.

To cut a long story short, hired a van, drove 3hrs, collected the panels, got home and unwrapped everything, almost every pannel had scratches on some worse than others, a few had light streaks in the gel coat, the nose cone had some good blobs of resin on the seam edge where it meets the bonnet

Rang and spoke to Dave and he explained if I wet and dried then polished, I would get the scratches out and I could work on the seam line like this to

He offered to replace any panels I wasn't happy with if I returned them but it cost me the best part of £150 to collect them the first time, in my opinion i should of never been told they were ready to collect

In the end I posted the wheel arches back as these were the worst bits and he refunded me for these, I'm going to get some carbon ones now I think

As for the light streaks and scratches I'm just going to have to try and wet and dry them out, ide rather not have to do this, but hey ho

Overall I was just disappointed as they weren't cheap and he's regarded as the best place to get the panels,

Right anyway, my colour scheme might start to become a bit clearer

Marking out for the first cut, eek!





Marking for wishbones

Air filter hole was a bit tricky but turned out sweet, might make a scoop to cover it at some point



Ordered some tyres and wing stays from Mk, in stock and turned up next day, I wish all suppliers could manage this
