Rev1 - I think - MR2 Turbo Project

[h180eeu]

Cheers Craig, as for lined up, the spoiler is dropped in the bootlid holes, but the bootlid is just rested on, there arent even hinges present yet lol but i will spend some time lining things up as it goes together.

Very happy, white leather with a light blue stitch, fantastic quality and a very reasonable price. Fast turn around aswell. Can't recommend enough

[h180eeu]

Got a quick 10 mins earlier so trial fitted the nur spec, not decided yet but i like it, think i might do something with the standard grille that sits between the pipes, but not chop it off as i feel it makes the rear end look odd.

anyway, random pics

Only a slight update but an update none the less.

Cage is now out for painting, the colour was close but just not quite close enough.

and with the cage out it was time to refit the roof seals, roof lining etc

looking good there mate

[h180eeu]

massive delay in updates but ive started a new job and got a new car, clearing some debts and progressing slowly again.

So firstly the new daily



and now



Diff is mig spec

and finally got the cage in the correct blue and bolted down, this was the first time actually with the roof furniture in so nerve wracking









and the tbar panels fit, and are just useable - the sunshades down fit anymore though.

More coming soon

[h180eeu]

Few more pics of the cage in place, really pleased with how its worked out seeing as its a tintop one with a few mods to fit the T-Bar

Breaking or selling as a whole?

[h180eeu]

breaking most likely. I have a little lad now and my BMW is ridiculous enough so can't justify it and the 2.

just need to find out the rules etc for post for sale on here

[craig]

Shame dude. Premium membership is required in order to sell. £7.50 per year.

[C35Rob]

interested in the cage if you do decide to break...
