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.

Mebbe two little (4”?) contrails back from each budgie wing tip?

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.

Will have a look at the contrails.... hmmmm :think:

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 :roll:
