Yeah, i guess i could measure the flat roof parts which i want in carbon fibre, get mike to cut me up some. Paint where the carbon will not cover either black or arden blue and glue up the carbon panels using bodykit bonding......

Just a little update, nothing special as i plan to take things slowly.

Still waiting on the wossner pistons !
Picked up full GSI bodykit, im going to have it fitted and fully colour coded. At the same time have some other bits smoothed / filled. Also have a full inside shell spray done professionally.

Also brought some morettes from here.

Sold the rear carbon door cards, dont like them.

Ordered flexiglass formed windows from v-sport. Cheers Dave !

Purchased some yellow 4 point harnesses!

About to purchase OMP 10 point cage, which will be fitted by the body-work man and also the cage will be sprayed yellow.

Dash is out, and will remian out until re-spray is done and it has been modified and cut up a little!

I need to have clear-up really. Got loads of bits to sell to fund new things

When the pistons arrive you will see some nice shiny and interesting updates for the block, rebore etc.

I liked mine when I stripped the rear out, tempted to do it again, but don't like the idea of cutting the carpet back over the rear bench.

True, although the floor must be a pain when you have wet feet?

Just looking back over the whole project thread and DAMN i relised i had NO IDEA when i started this project!
I feel ashamed i wanted a combat 2 kit, i guess thats all my eyes had seen though as i was totally new to corsas!
