As mentioned I think the width of the V6 is the biggest issue for fowk trying a conversion. The majority of conversions fall down when you look at the wheels, the rears are usually the giveaway. Wouldn't like to think what size of spacers are on that yellow kitted one. Looks good though, just a...
You and me both, getting withdrawal systems having it stuck away under its cover in the garage but too much salt/grit on the roads the now and there's more snow fallen here today

That opens up a whole new can of worms though...
Best of luck anyway :)
I was lucky enough to get talking to a guy in a bar while in Canada last year that owned one. I didn't know he owned it till he offered me a lift back to my hotel (half hours walk away), we left the bar goes out to the car park an my jaw hit the deck.
Insanely quick, tail happy at the slightest...
Just ordered a TDS meter and hose filter to avoid any drying spots in future.
The drying towels i use are really good but hate when the car dries too quickly in the sun and leaves waterspots. God only knows how fowk cope in hard water areas, I'd go insane!

CoverYourCar make very good quality covers, depending how deep your pockets are though as 'damage' covers a huge range of issues. There are obviously much cheaper options out there but it depends how much you care about your paintwork
Biggest issues im guessing...

Too much choice.... :dapprove:
Christmas is coming up though so i could buy one of each, test them, pick a favourite and give the rest away. Sorry family :D
Contacting the other guy and you both sorting your own problems will be the quickest solution.
Insurance companies take AGES to sort things out, I had an old car away for 6 weeks to get a dent pulled out the drivers door and it resprayed!! Plus as you said, if it goes down as a 50/50 claim...
Posting in here so i remember to come back and see the image after i get home (some pics dont come up on my works pc)

Yeah the wire gasket should seal it. Presumably it fell out when it split.
Mind and dont put any exhaust paste on there, the fumes ruin the cat or soemthing so i've heard
