Got it down to a fine art by the looks of those door mods.
That's a good donor colour too.

Looks like a nice donor for condition.

Good luck with the next build.

thanks all shame about the car has fsh and all panels are in brill condition the guy was gutted when I told him about the kit until I showed him a pic . is it just me but as Z3s gone up in price and spares gone down they are giving wings away on ebay. I've dune that many now I can order all the parts in one sitting off ebay and build them in my sleep. just need to find a cheaper flip flue cap car builder solutions are out of stock at 150 a pop they are not cheap

I'm looking for a larger flip top fuel filler, larger the better but I don't want to pay some of the fancy prices being asked. I'm going to try the truck / tractor type suppliers, they might do something.

I'll poke around in my storage bin. May have an old Cobra cap you can use. Free, but you pay to ship.

I have seen and bought cheaper caps off ebay thinking give it a go but always end up going back to CBS for the Aston cap. I think as its so on show the quality needed.
