For those who are interested/care LOL!

decided to approach the fakerrari by starting at the back and working forward!

So 3 nights to stick a bit of mesh in the rear panel:blink: then I moved onto the t/pipes.........

These stuck out way too far for me so started cutting and shutting em' Tonight,

As it arrived.

One in, one out!

 

Both done,looks loads better I reckon.....

This is what I was after from the side,

 

Need to order a h/level brake light and get the rear lights in next (originals :blink:)

:biggrin:

Sorted the steering wheel-just need to suss how to fit the centre piece,needs to be removable..........

And fitted the dials.....

:hammer:

Nice wheel:thumbup1:

Cheers Gaz, the original Toyota butc.......I mean modified! LOL!

I looks very like my Momo wheel except for the center bit.:biggrin:

Coming together nicely i see, following with intent.

Not a bad little job, the dead givaways are the exhaust pipes they are far to small and don't come out far enough (they fairly often come up on ebay) and apart from the engine bay the interior will be a dead givaway, but to the uninitiated I am sure you will get a lot of attention when you drive it. I have a red 430 Spider and it is great (a real one) if you need any technical help pictures wise let me know and I will post them for you.. great fun though good job! I know someone who buys these and hires them out, not a bad little business!!!!!

No I haven't been slacking! Been waiting for the brake kit as the Company didn't have stock.........

Anyhow,got it now-my new Carbon brakes LOL!

These are huge and not meant for this kit,it will be tight!!

Lots of fettling to do but they will look the danglies when done.:ninja:

Don't think I'll be needing real ones with the 1.8.................

 

Anyhow,got one disc and Caliper finished Tonight,looks good I reckon,all adds to the Illusion...........

 

Must get a shot with the wheel on,if it fits! LOL!

:ninja:

Shot with wheel on,that'll do me!

Bet the Mot man will be well confused LOL!

:ninja:

Ahhh cheers for reply mate,look forward to more workshop pics:drool:

At last!-got the trim back..................Bit dissapointed TBH, maybe I'm picky but I reckon for a 'pro' the job could have been at lot better:sad:

Still, it's here and it has to be fitted!

Trial fit of the door cards, waiting on some speaker grilles.....

 

The roll hoops are one area I'm not happy with-might have to re-do these.....

 

Centre console needs a LOT of work!-getting the 'leccy window switches back in for a start!

 

At least the seats look good,more pics when I get that far! LOL!

:hammer:

So the speaker grilles came Today, oth door cards now finished..

 

Still working on the centre console........had this idea of making trims up and altered the switches to 'rock' back and forth-the bolts are there to set the position,alloy knobs on order!

 

I'll have to see what it turns out like when the knobs are fitted-all extra work because of the shitty trim job!:hammer:

Just a gratuitous shot........

Awesome Daz!!!!!! some cobra style bonnet stripes would be nice :)

Wow it looks like a real one mate...what was up with the re-trim Daz? looks ok in the pics

I've just shot my biscuits!!!!!

Wow - almost there Daz..... I like it mate; keep the pics coming!!
