Hi Matt, Your car is looking superb, I'm quite envious!

Thanks for the comments I suppose I get a bit of encouragement from everyone on here. The head light I got from CBS I had a look on there site but they don't seam to have them at the moment. I cant quite remember how much I paid.

Well time for a little up date. Not much happened lately but I have finish modifying my rear arches and they are now fitted back on as a finish item (hope I don't need to take them off again). I'm still not too sure about what I have done so I might change them after my IVA but It might grow on me..so also started to rewire the lights but then my back gave in so ill do the other side tonight.

I quite like the rear arches. Looks like you have done a nice tidy job there.

well time for a little update.
I've finished or started and finished my front wheel arch brackets and mounted my arches. Just got one arch left to put some edging trim on quite a fiddle job to get them looking the same from one side to another. spent a few hours in the garage yesterday and made a cover box and mounted my fuse box and brake reservoir in it looks ok. connected my last brake lines to the peddles just need to get some brake fluid on the way home tonight and I will try to bleed my bakes. one thing I am thinking of doing is to mount my side repeaters on the front arches for the IVA angle thing and also mount my front indictors on the top of the arches but not sure what to do there yet.

Thats what I am doing Matt. I have some stick on LED types from CBS for the repeater on the outer edge of the wing and a pair of surface mount ones for the main indicator at the front of the wing. I've tried turning full lock both ways and checking the 80deg 45deg angles for IVA and they work fine
