body of the car dude. the mounts follow the shape/curve of the window line if you get me...

Little update for this, been collecting parts over the last while

front mount

(http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb188/simonconno87/Banbridge-20111024-00031_zpsc87efa2e.jpg)

exterior there is going to be some nice changes happening

+50mm rear dmax overs

(http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb188/simonconno87/IMG_1595_zps4e5ceecb.png)

got me an NA bonnet to fit this lovely Nismo bonnet vent i got from Keith on here.

(http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb188/simonconno87/486392505_tp_zps276d87b1.jpg)

and i bought i roof spoiler to acompany my garage bb wing. should be cool.

(http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb188/simonconno87/images_zps05c1983e.jpeg)

and I\'ve ordered a new bumper and front +25 Dmax vented wings.. once these are all fitted be going of for paint with its new colour...

some silly big wheels to go on the rear to fill my +50mm overs and the rears i have on the car at the min are going on the front.

18x11 -22, should be fun to fit.

the wing is tilted back far enough for it to open fully... makes good use for a lunch table.

i cant do it straight away as i live abroad, but when im talking to family at home i will ask one of them to do it for you, no problems.

if you have an FC you could just measure  from the middle of the metal on each side of the rear window if you get me.

havent been on here in awhile living abroad dont get much time to work on my car but here it is as it stand, i got a weekend at it not so long ago ang got to test fit everything.


over the past ive collected a few bits and i was home last week and got a chance to do a lil trial mock up to se how it may turn out...

pics to show some of the very roughly fitted panels.. going to need to do a good bit of bodging to get them fitting half decent but ya get the idea..
