SL03JOE 104 Report post Posted April 2, 2016 Update again: Me and the body shop have disguised a plan to get the front wheels to turn full lock freely! So that'll be done in next week or 2! But I also fitted some of the wearelikewise stuff, not to everyone's taste but I think it looks mad and cool! She's very dusty! But in itching to drive it so bad!! Hopefully will be 100% ready for japfest! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Lauren and Keethos reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul 442 Report post Posted April 2, 2016 I am not going to comment on the nuts or the gearknob, not my thing but if that's your poison so be it. But I have to ask, are you keeping the stock wing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haha that's it! No buddy battle aero wing is on order just awaiting them to make and ship it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SL03JOE 104 Report post Posted April 9, 2016 Wing order is now complete and is awaiting shipping next week! Not exactly the same, but close! Chances being on for japfest 10% But car should be back on road by next weekend with new custom front arches and seals!

adamj29 133 Report post Posted April 9, 2016 Why have you changed the front arches mate? That 10% better increase as you have to come to Japfest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SL03JOE 104 Report post Posted April 10, 2016 Why have you changed the front arches mate? That 10% better increase as you have to come to Japfest More clean race to allow for bigger tyres and possibly wider wheels in future! 10% is the chance of me fitting the wing bud! I'll be at japfest no worries!! Well if my tickets turn up haha 2 adamj29 and Gringosteve reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SL03JOE 104 Report post Posted April 16, 2016 So cars out of the body shop finally! Not the best pictures but weather was horrific!! Spoiler on order, splitter and side skirts will be fitted soon, not rocket bunny ones! Was amazing to drive! Feels ridiculously wide when on the road!

Nicebiscuit 655 Report post Posted April 16, 2016 I think you may have achieved the impossible and built a subtle rocket bunny kitted car. That looks 'right' in every way. Looks like it should be sat on the grid at Le Mans in about 1976. In a very very good way.
