No updates yet, still waiting for panels to be made.

16v and boost don't mix.... requires investment into crank, rods, valves and then custom fabrication of inlet/exhaust.

You can do it, but then you'd also break 085 boxes for fun. N/A they make a fair bhp/£ especially with a 1.6 bottom end, but for boosting and 200bhp+ it's a hell of a cash injection needed to make it reliable.

Recent progress:

Other side to do tomorrow

Oh my thats going to look so cool! You should get some banded steels hahaha

that front end looks brutal. love it!

that looks epic!!!! gotta get some clear indicators tho!

il pm you tomorrow with some useful photos of a chopped up rear quarter to aid in your rear repairs

YES!

That is all.

Oh my!

pass the tissues.

It was unfortunate what happened, but to turn things around and further improve upon what was near as dammit perfect in the first instance is quite something!

Cheers for the kind comments!

Front end is done now, just need to wait for the boot to arrive, and order rear windows.

Love it, whats the plans with regards paint? you doing everything red or leaving it asis?

Matt black arches, rust effect on the bonnet, chrome roof rack and some Hoodride stickers should do it.

slam it!

looking mean mate!

Needs to get a fresh coat of red though

Holy fuck! Love it :-D

I know this isn't about looks but it you do want a set of clear indys for it I've got a pair you can have, one has a crack on the lense tho

Clear lenses would ruin it.

Orange FTMFW.

I only offered cause some one mentioned it above, if he wants them their there, if not they will go with the other shit i'll never use that i'll be taking to the rr day to give away to clear some space in my lock up

I know lol

Just saying dude, looks much better with the orange lenses.

Really looking forward to seeing this...

A TOTAL INSPERATION!!!

Seriously Yoof n Andy rlly nice job =)

~peers over top of sofa~

Scary much!

EPIC

Fast becoming a g40 berg cup replica! Will the carbon fibre bonnet/ wide arches not flex at top end speeds?

Ferrari F40 manages

Hopefully the aero catches will stop the bonnet ripping apart again!

Pete, where stocks the carbon skins? Or is it a case of being lucky enough to find one for sale?

I don't know of a supplier in the UK for Carbon bits currently, mine's an All Smiles one, who went bust ages ago- as have Performance Trim now.

I'll start a group buy on Club G40 for GRP bits from Germany though.

Looks good Yoof as said on E38. You recon you'd comfortably get some 15x8s under those arches? Also, where'd you get them if you dont mind me asking.
