Looking great, that's going to be a nice tidy job once complete.
Someone will correct me if I am wrong, I would imagine that the rear arches will cover those rivet heads once fitted.

Thanks guys! The front edge of the cover is held on by poppers as well. They'll hold it on all the way around.
If you mean the rivets around the suspension opening then yes the arches should cover them all. |

I meant how was the rear panel secured

Rivets where it meets the suspension aperture and by being formed over the top and bottom rear panel hoops. I added some sikaflex in a few places to get rid of some vibration noises when you tap it.

I'm just about to order some shocks for my car but before I do I'm trying to find a thread on here where we talked about the front shock length. I've built my car to Saturn plans which stipulates a 13" front shock but I was advised to go with a 14" front shock on here somewhere. Does anyone know why and if so, is that a full 14" shock or 13" with a 1" extension?

I used Gaz 14" open 9.5" closed shocks from Rallydesign. I read several posts that indicated these were the correct ones and they seem fine on my car

Is that for a Sierra based build? Mines an MX5 build using the Saturn Sports Cars plans.
I vaguely recall someone saying to use 14" front shocks for mine as 13" shocks can top out easily causing some handling issues (I presume the wheel could potentially leave the ground or go very light?) |

I've spoken to them but they're only aware of the 13/12 combo for the Saturn cars.

The thread I was thinking off preceded talons gaz shock group buy thread however, that appears to have been deleted.
