[imprezaworks]

The ph1 against the ek9 should be interesting.

 

[Harpham]

Car looks wicked btw. Really coming along. I can't help but think that you need to spray your centre caps though .

 

[danh90]

I was thinking that the other day about the centre caps might spray 1 see what it's like,,

[danh90]

The ph1 against the ek9 should be interesting.

The green cage??? Haha

Looks awesome close up even if it's not fitted 100% safely (not welded any plates in yet) all though it's solid but I get what people say it prob could go through the floor if I rolled it

 

[danh90]

[marinemackay2003]

Don't roll it then lol

 

[danh90]

good thinking

 

[Bobby.]

Looks like its all coming together now. Have to agree with harpham though, Would look much better with the centre caps sprayed black.

What cage did you go for?

 

[danh90]

I'm going to be Getting some spray next few days so will give them a go,,

Cage was from the guy making them of eBay that a few have bought can't grumble whatsoever for the money well pleased

 

[marinemackay2003]

tbh all the gripe on welded / not welded - would rather have one than not

bang some good pics up as i may be after one myself for the ph 1

 

[danh90]

The sun was out today so got cracking with a few jobs mainly making my doorcards and fitting my battery tray i made at work just awaiting on a junction box then it will be getting moved..

especially as the new KTR induction kit is as tight as a ducks arse at the minute..

Also painted inside the car again midweek then fitted my cage did it on my aswell bit of a pain but not too bad...
All i want to do now is get my callipers painted not sure what colour at the minute maybe a subtle black/silver or always like the look of a yellow...

And the cage

Think that will be pretty much it now before oulton on the 31st give the car a good outing

 

[imprezaworks]
