Can i ask a Q about your previous bodywork ?.... your Bomex front lip.. did you have the undertrays fitted to it ? - if so how was it done ?

thanks

[THE DUKE]

No, undertrays were not fitted, you couldnt!

Would have needed to make adapters

[THE DUKE]

Ok has been a few weeks and now the mock up of what it should look like:





Most of the prep has been done now it just needs some tidying on the fiberglass work and bonding.. Oh and no, the fron splitter will not be held on by screws

[deadhumancollector]

Damn, i wish i'd kept it now......how has the fit been? like i said it looked a bit of a rough finish but never had a chance to proof fit.

I'm gonna be one jealous boy once its finished.....top effort matey!

[THE DUKE]

She's going together well.. im just dreading the finish as i know plastics are hard to keep smooth and flat..

Oh well we'll see what comes out in the wash

[deadhumancollector]
