Does it need it? i.e for the kit parts to fit too? Also what about the wheel arch inners are they still needed or optional? And can I fit the rear with the original sills in place or do they have to come off? Thanks. |
Interesting thread
Thanks for posting photo's of your build. I'm sure it will be followed with interest.

Rear arch liners can be trimmed on their out edges and refitted. Front liners need extensive trimming to allow front body section to be raised and lowered but still offer some protection of the engine etc from road spray. I personally ran the SWB prototype for 5 months, into the winter months, without any arch liners install and didn't experience any problems. The sills are the first panels that need to be fitted due to the rear top bolt holes being covered by the rear end section. |
Thank, so is it drivable on the roads with sills, rear end and boot? I think I will put rear alloy bumper part on as need to secure exhausts to something solid.

Boot lock Boot latch 2 boot hinges Boot stay Boot rubber seal Boot inner part 2 rear lights 2 indicators 2 no. Plate lamps Number plate 2 reflectors/fog lamps Fuel pipe Fuel cap Rear body kit section Number plate trim Then thinking about wether to mount old z3 aerial and fitting inside of arch That should get me road worthy |
