That's awesome , great work mate - do you mind if I steal your idea for the 2 door ???
That is just the sort of "is that stock or modified??" subtle mod that really gets the crowd guessing.

Re: Ol' Rusty - FB/EK Sedan
That was kinda the original plan - well a lot less subtle than what your suggesting. When the bonnet was hanging in storage I taped blue lines following the 3 tips of the bird to the back of the bonnet to get a visual on what it might look like with a twin bulge set into the bonnet. Closest visual to that would be the bonnet of an RX-8 - it's embossed into the bonnet rather than sitting up proud. But that would require more than hand tools.Harv wrote: Fri Jul 18, 2025 9:33 am Mebbe two little (4”?) contrails back from each budgie wing tip?

Did a separate post on how I made these overriders - https://www.fbekholden.com/forum/viewto ... 61#p275061, but I'll put the final results here as well as a reminder to me
