bit more of an update and some piccys for you all finally got the rest of my bits done, bonnet and bumper.






need it to dry properly then i can throw the bumper on and put the vents in the bonnet still not sure if to them black or white yet.

finished manifold as well. had to extend it all by about 40mm as the turbo was hitting the block and the manifold was touching the head.

thats all for now folks

i won't mind the bonnet as much with the colour coded vents, if they were black it would look odd and like a panda
