Title: My new bodykit
Post by: mazda bait on October 12, 2006, 11:20:23 PM
Decided to start trial fitting my new vanquish bodykit.  Believe it or not you are looking at the reult of hours and hours of work! Apologies about the pics being a bit pants i took them on my phone.

Skirts are going to need quite a bit of work just to get the doors to shut!  Rear bumper doesn\'t allow for my exhaust.  But the front bumper which i was expecting to be a real pig to fit looks like it\'s going to need the least work.

I can see how bodyshops can justify charging so much now..... :Hammer

It costs a fortune but i keep 3 of my cars up there and a couple of mates rent space off me for there cars too.  I need to do some work up there next summer and set it all out properly, but i reckon i could comfortably fit 15 cars in there with room to work on them!:chat

Looking good mate. Are you going to be doing all the work on the kit yourselve?

I\'m going to get the fitting all good, but i\'ll leave the spraying to the pro\'s i\'ve had quite a good price.  Next on the agenda is starting to drill out the mounts and fit it properly.  As soon as it all looks good, it\'ll come off and go away to be sprayed.  But just to keep me busy i\'m fitting my charge cooler and a few other toys whilst i can get easy access into the engine bay!

But like i say hopefully.....;)

Well she\'s looking a lot better than it did headlights are sprayed and pretty much fitted.  Suspension fitted, skirts fitted, rear diffuser fitted, front bumper fitted, new indicators fitted.  Just need to get down to the spray shop next month and send my wheels away for refurb! Not too sure how long the skirts will last she\'s really slammed now!
