Very nice car! The striping does it! Also like the meshed headlights! Keep up the good work!

Havnt added an update for a while, mainly because ive been having too much fun driving it!

got my pipes done yesterday, manifold back in stainless with a twin exit single box and a couple of upswept stainless tips, sounds sooooo much better and looks the part now!

I can see a contender for the Triburte Automotive Owners Club Best in Show competition

Thanks, but it's not quite there yet!
Is there an award for the nicest exhaust note?

Looking forward to seeing you and the car at Stoneleigh soon, I will post you some passes, once they arrive.

Thanks!

Decided to colour match the centre console to the outside of the car, hopefully it will look nice when fitted, otherwise i'll be peeling it back off!

Think your back lights are spot on!

They really suit the car.

They remind me of retro Ford?

I think they are old BMW 1802 or 2002, I have thought about the same for my Dino

neemo · #**155** 24th April 2014, 07:57

yep they look like bmw 2002 lights pre 1973

TheLaughingCow · #**156** 25th April 2014, 05:07

they are indeed bmw 2002 lights, skip back a few pages and you'll see we played the "guess where my lights are from" game! a few months back,

I was originally going for the cortina lights as above, but they don't have the reversing light built in like the bmw lights

TheLaughingCow · #**157** 25th April 2014, 05:08

apparently they are also upside down according to axels picture

Scottie22 · #**158** 25th April 2014, 08:55

No, the BMW ones were upside down, yours are correct!
Hey when we build cars we can do what we want!!

Where did you get these mirrors? Can you also talk to me about how you installed those side repeaters?
