Not too far away now but still need all the electrics done and then mapping. Hopefully not so aiming for some summer track days.

 

[Stu.]

Some updates! Nothing too exciting I'm afraid. Got my JP on, really need to try get it to sit in my bumper cut out though!

Had to get this made up for it to fit, Cost a small fortune in itself

How it sits But gave her a wee clean.

And then machined my headlights.

And then an indoor swimming pool found its way into the passenger footwell The next day in the rain...

Thats about it for the time being!

 

[Adamm.]

Sunflower <3.

Looking truly epic now mate once that exhaust is sat perfect and a front splitter is on it will be perfection .

 

[EngineerD]

I got it off 'Attero' on here, who got it from 'DaneC' who got it from 'reevio'. And thats as much as i know lol!

Miss it. Yeah I had it for 11 months, Attero had it for about a month?! After he ruined the wheels .

 

[Craig.]

Exhaust looks tasty.

What you doing with the stealth? My mates just got a ph1 & he's after one.

 

[.Stevo.C.]

Right then, Fairly big pic update getting ready for FCS / trip to france! Here goes...

First up, Started painting the rear and ran out of paint!

Prepped -

Got to here! Fitted front carpets aswell.

Take 1 shiny 206 carbon bonnet

Cut it up -

Trial fitted, Bit off but cant be helped due to the shape of them.

New bumper on, Although not sure i like the exhaust sitting under it.

Got more paint, And finished

So that was that done, Next onto fitting thenew wing. Which led to the whole front end being off! front and rear of the sills were bent from jacking on them and a little rusty, So straightend them out and gave them some underseal, Aswell as cleaning up in the arches.

in bits!

Then tonight i started cleaning it, Full Iron X, Tardis, Clay and then it started raining!

Wheels were rank!

Showing the new wing in its faded glory.

Thats all for now! Still a fair few bits to get done before the end of the week!

 

[Adam.]

Bangin.

 

[Djw Dave]

[Stu.]

Well done if you've lasted this long

Thats all for now!

Cheers

Now yours actually looks like a sunflower should, rather than the faded margarine yellow that most of them appear to be.

God I want my insurance on a ph1 soon.

 

[Poopensharten]

Give me your sunflower.

 

[Harpham]

Looks epic Stu. Are you at CSS, ya wee bawbag?
