Hey Fingers,
Great work with your project. I don't know how you manage doing more than one at a time. A big effort no doubt.
Who did you source your paint from?? (Apache Red/Clinker Grey)
Was the paint matched to a sample or was it from a colour mixing formula?
I wouldn't mind seeing both colours upfront as my FB is getting close to getting its paint.
Cheers.

Had a few spare hours today so,I thought I would bolt up the subframe .............it took a lot longer than planned getting everything to line up .....but eventually after 7 hours of twisting, lifting, dropping,podging , coaxing and a lot of cussing it went together including the 2 main 9/16 bolts that go in to the subframe from the inside ...anyone had this problem .....the problem was probably that the subframe was from another car and hadnt been fitted to this shell at the GMH plant so nothing aligned easily .....anyone else have problems fitting their subframes :
What do you all think of the gauge pod or would the originals from the green car look better ..........Fingers :thumbsup..........

Finger the pod looks good to me. Can you angle the gauges when you fit them? It's a tidy look mate. You have done great work on you ride. What is the steering rack and column you are using?

Yeah sorry fingers I have to agree with trev. The pod seems to sit a little too high.
Beauty is in the eye of the beer-holder so what ever floats ya boat!
